How To Keep Your Seattle Home And Neighborhood Safe
You may be surprised to see there’s a higher concentration of crime in your community than you anticipated. Thankfully, there are steps you can take to better protect your home and keep thieves out of your Seattle neighborhood. Consider the following suggestions:
- Get acquainted with your neighbors: Connect with people living nearby and watch out for one another. Many Seattle neighborhoods have launched official neighborhood watch organizations.
- Get a security system: Whenever a prowler sets off an alarm, it will discourage them from lurking around your neighborhood. Exterior security cameras are one of the strongest deterrents, as criminals never want to be seen on camera.
- Keep valuables out of your car. Leaving your keys, wallet, or laptop in your vehicle can result in a break-in. If possible, take valuable items with you or stow them out of view beneath a seat or in the trunk.
- Use motion-activated lighting: Powerful lighting deters prowlers. By installing motion-activated lights adjacent to the garage or a back door, you can prevent an intrusion before it starts.
- Let people know when you leave: Inform a trusted neighbor when you’re going to be gone and provide a key or smart lock PIN in case of an emergency. Keep your travel plans off Facebook and other social platforms.
