windows and doors more visible to neighbors and the street.

numbers are clearly visible from the street. House numbers should be
lighted or reflective.

lighting and minimize completely dark areas. Consider motion detector lights
for side yards.

gate makes it more difficult for the criminal to access your home.

belongings. Items that are left lying around invites criminals. |
