Home security in Baltimore

Tony Vicente
Posted

Has your home or investment been broken into? How worried are you about it?

How do you protect your properties in the rougher neighborhoods? Metal bars, security systems, cameras,...? Or just don't worry about it, if you're gonna get robbed, you're gonna get robbed either way.

I also noticed that most houses have BS locks on them that any kiddie can lockpick in 30 seconds, whereas in other countries people use slightly more serious locks. Any point in upgrading locks and doors?

I would put some kinda sec system that makes sound when they enter. I dont think they care about the cameras, Baltimore City police dep. is not gonna find anybody  who brakes into a house :D))

If you are  buy a house total 50K, just factor that into it. If it is vacant for a long time, it will be broken into.
