What's that?[/quote]

[b]If I lived in DC[/b] no matter where I would have an alarm.[/quote]

The key to your statement is "IF I LIVED IN DC;" you clearly don't live here and have an out-of-date picture of crime in DC!

OP, we have an alarm system in the house we bought but it has no service. I didn't sign up with a company when we moved in. We have a large dog, which will protect us FAR better than an alarm system any day. I say this as someone who has multiple family members in law enforcement. A dog will deter 98% of criminals. An alarm system, not so much. Another tidbit I learned from law enforcement family members, many criminals have been employed by alarm companies![/quote]

Oh, please. I'm not the previous poster, but I did live in DC and had an alarm system, and still have one in the 'burbs. Everyone I know who lives on the Hill has had a break-in or attempted break-in. Even in the 'burbs there kid crime. You rainbows and sunshine are super cute, but idiotic. In any urban area.[/quote]

Not everyone lives in Capital Hill in DC! I have lived in Upper NW both East and West of Rock Creek Park and the crime around me is mainly car break-ins. My neighborhoods have been quiet and well boring. [/quote]
