FREE
RESIDENTIAL SECURITY SURVEYS


The Orange County Sheriff's Office Crime Prevention Units are now offering FREE Residential Security Surveys, free of charge, to Orange County residents.

"This program offers an analysis of home security with recommendations on how to improve your quality of life and peace of mind," said Crime Prevention Officer Deputy Nick Cominos in Sector 3 "Since each home environment is different, even if it has the same floor plan as other homes in the neighborhood, we come out to the home and make a home security assessment of the property starting at the curb and ending with the interior of the home."

The Crime Prevention unit uses national standards set by the National Center for Crime Prevention and referred to as "Crime Prevention through Environmental Design." or CPTEDP


"Prevention is the key"

We must remain alert to the fact that criminals thrive on opportunity. Our communities are still targeted by criminals who look for easy access to residential property. The harder we make it for criminals, the better chance we stand to eliminate or at least lower the incidence of property crimes.

Approximately one-third of most burglaries involve unsecured property in the home or in cars. Leaving your car, your home or your personal property unsecured can lead to stolen property, credit card fraud and identity theft. Remember that insurance companies may not reimburse you for your loss since most minor larcenies generally fall within the customary deductible.
