It is no secret that Salisbury, Md., has a little bit of a crime problem. After consistently being Maryland’s town with the most crime per capita, there is the evidence to back up Salisbury citizens’ fears. And unfortunately, the crime rates continue on a steady, upward trend.
So far in 2011, over 51 homes and businesses have been burglarized and 12 people have been robbed, according to crime statistic website SpotCrime. Overall, there have been more than 300 cases of property crime. And it has only been 2011 for 32 days.
You probably lock your doors every night before you go to bed. And that feels like a strong barrier against crime, doesn’t it? But as hard as it is to break into a locked door, it’s just as easy to break a window, which leaves your house just as vulnerable if you’d never locked the door in the first place.
Criminals do not discriminate. They go after any and every target to get what they want. And they love to see homes with holes in the security.
I bet you can think of a million reasons not to get a security system. All that hassle and trouble. And what about the cost? But it is better to be proactive than reactive. No, really. Security companies in Salisbury are always installing alarms after a crime has already been committed.
With tax refund checks rolling in, now is the perfect time to treat yourself to a gift: safety and peace of mind. Don’t let living in a county with an excess of crime keep you from living your life. Just live it with more security.

These stats are very disturbing. With the economy in the shape it is in I believe it is going to get worse. Interesting article.
what ball park of pricing is it to get an alarm system?

I got an alarm system from Alarm Engineering after my house was broken into. They are very reasonable, about $150-$200 for the install. Plus, I get a break on my homeowners insurance.
I have had an alarm system on my doors and windows for 18 years. I have peace of mind when I go to bed and when I leave my house.It costs about $25/month.
Carrie,
Im glad you asked, alarm systems come in all shapes and sizes. It depends how windows, doors, and motions you would need. Feel free to contact me for pricing.
