Home burglary, a problem that has affected many people negatively. Around 18 seconds, at least one report of burglary has been reported. This adds up to 200 home invasions every hour. In a single day approximately 4,800 burglaries have happened. In a single year, approximately 2,000,000 burglaries are reported. If you have a home security system you have a higher protection, burglars try to stay away from homes that do have a home security systems. Most home invasions between the hours 10 am-3pm, 5 hours in which homes can be targeted. Even though you may not be able to relate to the issue that many people have faced, you still can take some tips and be safe to avoid this from happening to you. Always lock your windows and doors, because 30% of break ins are because of a some type of unsealed doorway and/or window.

Home burglaries,one problem that many people have faced. Every year, around 2,000,000 burglaries are reported. 30% are from an unlocked window and door. 66% are from home breaks in from residential areas. Most burglary reports are  during the summer,studies show that people without home security systems are 300% more likely to get broken into. Every 13 second a home intrusion is committed,2,000 cars end up are stolen every year. There are a variety of ways to protect your house, home security is one very effective way.They're other ways if you don't have a home security system. One way is to cut large amounts of roots, or bushes so in case a burglar has the idea to try to break into your home. The first thing they will notice, is that they don't have anywhere to hide.If you're out on vacation, you could tell a Neighbor to help you make it seem like you're home, in the winter they could leave foot tracks leading to your door; and leave tire marks in your driveway. During the summer, you can pay them to mow your lawn. If not, you can leave lights on to make it seem like you're home. You can also turn the volume of your doorbell down and have a radio playing, to make people think you're home and can't hear them.

When I was living in Chicago, my neighborhood would report 1 case of burglary every month or so. Luckily, my family never had to report one. But after 4 years of living in there, we had to move out because my Mom was going to have my baby sister. So we moved into Berwyn a month after my Sister was born, we wanted my sister to grow up in a good neighborhood.A couple years later someone tried to jump our fence and break in. We only found out because our dog started barking, at first we thought he needed to go outside. So we opened the door for him to go, when it opened half way he sprinted outside and started barking. We had heard a scream, when we looked out the window we saw someone jump over the gate and get inside a car. That was the last time we have had a problem, when we had visited our cousins. I Guess they had faced the same problem, because they bought a home security for the front and back door. Almost every door in the house had some kind of protection, anytime we would open the door as siren would go off and a voice would announce where a door would open. Even if you were to slam a door or close something to hard,it would trigger the alarm
