International. According to reports from the firm ADT, in 2014 the months in which the main increases for theft to house-room, as well as small businesses, correspond to the holiday season, Easter and summer holidays.
Using alarm systems and remote video surveillance at home are the ideal tools to minimize the risks during absences at home due to the holidays.
According to figures from the SESNSP (Executive Secretariat of the National Public Security System) comparing 2013 vs 2014 there is an increase in complaints of 3.6%.
In the last year, a total of 113,819 complaints were registered for house-room robberies, this indicates that on average 9,484 robberies were reported each month.
It should be noted that with regard to home-room robbery (with and without violence) the northwest peninsula of the country registers the highest reporting rates nationwide, since Baja California occupies the first place and Baja California Sur the second, Jalisco and Guanajuato are positioned in the third and fourth place in the ranking of reported house-room robberies.
Holy Week brings with it the absence of workplaces, schools and the home. The scenarios are at the mercy of crime that voraciously seeks a new victim. Physically and technologically unprotected properties are the perfect target for economic values to be subtracted from them, mainly the house-room is stolen.
In this regard, Roberto Rivera Mier, director of Institutional Relations of Tyco Integrated Fire & Security, highlights that the increase in thefts observed at this time, according to the company's experience, is equivalent to 18%, a figure that results when comparing these vacation months with the rest of the year.
