How To Keep Your Long Island Home And Neighborhood Safe
You might be surprised to discover there’s a higher level of criminal activity in your community than you expected. Luckily, there are ways you can better protect your home and keep intruders out of your Long Island neighborhood. Check out these suggestions:
- Get acquainted with your neighbors: Connect with the people living around you and keep an eye out for one another. Numerous Long Island neighborhoods have launched official neighborhood watch groups.
- Install a security system: If a prowler trips an alarm, it will deter them from lurking around your neighborhood. Exterior surveillance systems are among the strongest deterrents, as criminals will take steps to avoid being recorded.
- Keep valuables out of your vehicle. Leaving your smartphone, keys, or wallet in your parked car can encourage a break-in. If possible, bring valuable items indoors or stow them out of view under a seat or in the trunk.
- Use motion-activated lighting: Good lighting keeps prowlers away. By installing motion-sensing lights over the garage or a back door, you can halt a burglary before it starts.
- Let people know when you go out-of-town: Let a trusted neighbor know when you’re out of town and provide a key or door lock code for emergencies. Don’t post travel plans on Facebook and other social platforms.
