Combining Local Crime Statistics and Real Reviews

The FBI reports that a property crime occurs in the US, every 4.1 seconds.

While this statistic is shocking, it is impersonal and difficult to comprehend.

Until it happens to you.

Crime, on the other hand, is immensely personal.

When you’re a victim, national crime statistics don’t help you. Instead, they leave you with a sense of “What could I have done to prevent this?”

We Do the Homework For You

Our goal at HomeAlarmReport is to break down these national statistics to give actionable insights into potential threats in your neighborhood along with how to protect your family.

To do this, we’ve collected and organized data from federal and local governments to create one of the largest crime databases in the US.

This allows us to give you local, personal, statistics so you can make informed decisions.

We do the research to create fair, in-depth reviews of the top security providers. We offer a clear assessment of each company to help you make the right choice to protect you and your family.

Local Crime Statistics + Real Reviews =

An Action Plan to Protect your Family

In-Depth Reviews of Security Providers

Knowing the threats in your area is great, but it doesn’t help protect you.

To help close this gap, we’ve dug deep into both DIY and professionally installed security system to show you the Good, Bad, and Ugly of what each of system does—and doesn’t do—to protect you and your family.

Our Review Method: High Standards, Specific Criteria

Home security providers, companies and manufacturers make a lot of promises. We read the fine print and see if their services and products live up to their word. Our reviews simplify complicated contract language into an easy-to-understand format.

Throughout our years of review experience, we’ve standardized the review process. We have a specific set of criteria by which we evaluate each business. Our reviews go through five stringent levels of thorough review in five categories:

• Customer Service
• Cost & Value
• Equipment & Hardware
• Features & Tech
• Ease of Use

Plus, many of the home security providers respect us, so we’re able to get real answers to your questions—not just a canned line from a sales rep trying to make a sale.

Not All Home Security Providers Are Created Equal

We review the top home security companies and dive deep into their security systems.

Here are some of the security companies we have reviewed:

• Frontpoint Security
• SimpliSafe Home Security
• Xfinity
• Brinks Home Security
• LifeShield Home Security
• And many more
