The Reality Of Crime And Security Systems
What is the reality of crime in America today? The reality is that crime does happen; although since 1993 there have been nationwide declines in certain types of crimes, as sources such as the National Crime Victimization Survey suggest. However, prison populations have been increasing and it is still believed, statistically speaking, that a violent crime or robbery is committed every 20 minutes. This emphasizes the point that even if crime is decreasing, that still doesn’t mean that crime won’t affect your household at some point in the future.
