  • Nearly 66 percent of all burglaries are residential (home) break-ins.
  • 2,000,000 home burglaries are reported each year in the United States.
  • In the U.S. a home burglary occurs every 13 seconds.
  • Only 17% of the homes in U.S. have a security system.
  • 2,500+ cars stolen per day… almost 2 cars a minute.
  • Police usually only clear 13% of all reported burglaries due to lack of witnesses or physical evidence.

Awareness is an ongoing activity, and people want to do the right thing, so security guides a positive and proactive culture.
