3 Surprising Facts About Burglary and Security Systems

Burglars are more likely to avoid homes and businesses in Santa Barbara County with security systems! Homes with visible security systems, such as surveillance cameras and alarm signs, are less likely to be targeted. Burglars often avoid properties with obvious security measures to reduce the risk of getting caught.

Most burglaries happen during the day.
Contrary to popular belief, the majority of burglaries actually happen during daylight hours when people are at work or school. This is because it’s easier for burglars to blend in with the regular flow of activity in neighborhoods.

Social media can help burglars.
Posting vacation plans or updates on social media can inadvertently inform burglars that a home is empty, making it a prime target. It’s essential to be mindful of the information shared online, especially regarding travel plans.
