How Residential Video Surveillance Makes Your Neighbourhood Safer

Benefits For The Whole Neighbourhood

Quick Alerts For Accidents. Various accidents can happen in and around the home, such as vehicle crashes, fires, or medical emergencies. If an accident happens outside of your home and it triggers an alarm or is caught on camera and viewed on your video feed, this gives you knowledge of the incident even if you or others are not in the area and allows for a quick response. These quick responses can be the difference between a house burning down or your neighbour losing their life. Your security alarm will also go off if anyone attempts to break into your home or trespass, alerting the police. When an alarm is activated when someone breaks in, it often scares them off, protecting your home and the homes around them, as the thief will not want to stay near, or come back to, that area.

Limit Neighbourhood Vandalism And Theft. If you have a camera visible on your house, it deters theft and vandalism of your property. This benefit extends to your neighbours, as wide-view cameras can see spaces around the home such as neighbouring properties and sidewalks. The more homes on a street with residential video surveillance, the less likely that anyone on that street will get robbed or vandalized, as the criminal will typically target locations where they are least likely to be caught.

Monitor Homes. Not only can residential security systems alert you to any break-ins or vandalism, they can give you a view of the inside and outside of your home as well as the surrounding area. Again, this can help prevent crime against your neighbours or catch any culprits, but it offers other benefits as well. For example, you may be able to monitor animal activity that affects your neighbourhood. If you have a pet that stays at home while you go to work, you can monitor them while you are away and make sure they aren’t getting out. You can also monitor other animals that come into the yard so that you can determine which neighbourhood cat is in your garden while you’re at work or how racoons might be getting into your garbage while you sleep. Having a residential video surveillance system also lets you know when packages get delivered, as well as if there are any porch pirates roaming your streets.

Better Insurance For All. As a bonus, insurance rates are sometimes lower for homeowners with residential alarm systems as well as for all residents of a neighbourhood where most of the homes have residential security systems.
