Neighborhood Safety

Free Security Assessments
Many homes are burglarized every year. For a small amount of time and money you can make your home more secure and reduce your chances of being a victim. Many burglars will spend no longer than 60 seconds to try breaking into a home. Good locks, and good neighbors who watch for each other, can be big deterrents to burglars.
 
The City of Gaithersburg's Police Department offers FREE home security assessments. Call (301) 258-6168 to schedule your appointment.
 
Neighborhood Watch Guidance from the Gaithersburg Police Department: 
 
"As always, if you see something suspicious or out of the ordinary, you should call the police at 301-279-8000.  I would also tell neighbors to refrain from jumping to assumptions about any kind of incident without support as it can lead to misinformation."
