Explore Safety Tips For Your Athens Neighborhood And Home
You may find there’s more crime in your neighborhood than you thought. Thankfully, there are ways you can better secure your home and keep criminals away from your Athens neighborhood. Consider these tips:
- Get acquainted with your neighbors: Build relationships with nearby families and keep an eye out for one another. Many Athens neighborhoods have started neighborhood watch organizations.
- Install a security system: When a prowler sets off an alarm, it will discourage them from sneaking around your neighborhood. Outside security cameras are among the most effective deterrents, as criminals don’t want to be recorded.
- Don’t leave valuables in your car. Keeping your keys, purse, or laptop in your car can lead to a break-in. Whenever possible, bring valuables with you or place them out of view under a seat or in the trunk.
- Use motion-activated flood lights: Powerful lighting deters prowlers. By putting up motion-activated lights over the garage or a back door, you can halt a burglary before it begins.
- Let those you trust know when you leave town: Let a trusted neighbor know when you’re out of town and give them a spare key or door lock code for emergencies. Don’t post travel plans on Facebook and other social platforms.
