Every year the FBI conducts research on crime statistics. In 2010, the United States were found to have the following statistics on home invasion and burglary offenses:

• There were an estimated 2,159,878 burglaries throughout the entire year
• 6,088 home burglaries occurred per day in the United States (approximately every 12 seconds)
• Burglary accounted for 23.8% of the estimated number of property crimes committed
• Victims of burglary offenses suffered an estimated $4.6 billion in lost property
• Overall, the average dollar loss per burglary offense was $2,119
• Burglaries of residential properties accounted for 73.9% of all burgalry offenses

Companies and homes with surveillance solutions installed are better equipped to defend themselves against crime. Criminals are less likely to target a home or office that is well protected against burglary and invasion. By implementing these devices within a location, it not only offers sustainable evidence to be used to protect oneself against detrimental activities, but it also provides a sense of security within any community. Having the ability to identify the intruder allows peace of mind to any home or business owner. Don't become another statistic! Protect your home and business today!
