From the top of Mount Arvon all the way to Lake Erie, Michigan is home to 10,053,439 Michiganders. The Great Lakes State has a range of climates, with some areas reaching temperatures of 82 degrees in the summer and others seeing lows of 14 in winter months. On average, Michigan sees 32.1 inches of rainfall annually.
According to statistics reported by the FBI and the most recent census, your home has a 1 in 133 chance of experiencing a break-in this year.1, 2 However, studies have shown that simply adding a home security system makes your home up to three times less likely to be broken into.3 So with Michigan ADT monitoring, your chances are closer to 1 in 401.2, 34
Even though annual break-ins in Michigan decreased from 75,815 in 2009 to 73,868 in 2010, every month there are still more than 6,155 break-ins reported by Michiganders. And this is still 47% higher than national property crime averages.2
ADT Michigan helps deter would-be burglars. The U.S. Department of Justice reported that 9 out of 10 burglars targeted homes without security systems4.
Michigan currently has 8.80% unemployment; and this number has been consistent for a few years.1 That means there are over 884,702 people in Michigan without a reliable income.1 Researchers at UC Berkeley conducted a study and found that when unemployment rises, so does property crime. So it is unlikely that the number of break-ins will decrease anytime soon.5
With approximately 4,629 MI break-ins and an average loss of $1,475 per break-in, burglary costs Michigan $6,830,250 annually.1 You can get 3 years of ADT alarm monitoring for what you stand to lose in a single burglary.1
Burglars prefer working during the day, when fewer homeowners are home, rather than at night. In fact, 36% of break-ins in Michigan took place during the day.2 In the majority of burglaries, 62%, police took more than 11 minutes to respond, while the typical burglar spends about 8-12 minutes in a home once inside, giving burglars more than enough time to get in and out.2
At any hour of the day, ADT alarm professionals are ready to respond. ADT uses interconnected Customer Monitoring Centers, so no matter what, every one of the 93,000 daily alarms gets a response. In addition to this, these CMCs help ensure a timely response by interfacing with more than 38,000 local response agencies, like police, fire and medical agencies.
Helping protect your home from break-ins is only one part of the safety offered by ADT Michigan. Home security systems can also be indispensable in fires and floods.
There are cold winters in Michigan, which causes pipes to freeze and even burst. Leaking water can cause expensive damage to your home. ADT temperature sensors will tell you when temperatures dip below freezing. These sensors will help you take action before pipes freeze, avoiding potential damage.
In Michigan there are 1,030 fire departments in all. On average a fire department will respond to 2-3 fires every minute, and fire agencies nationwide responded to more than 1.3 million fires anually, which caused over $7 billion in property damage.8
Fire deaths in Michigan are above the national average. In 2010 the U.S. Fire Administration reported 141 fire-death mortalities.6
ADT's heat and smoke detectors will automatically notify you of large temperature spikes or if there is smoke present in your home. If the situation requires ADT monitoring professionals can automatically alert the fire department in your area as you evacuate your home.
