Residential communities across the Washington DC Metropolitan area find themselves under the threat of  thieves , robbers, vandals and other individuals who are intent of committing criminal acts.  The affluence of the Washington DC Metro area makes it a prime target for thieves from across mid- atlantic  region.  It is common that criminals will observe their target areas prior to acting.  Their surveillance typically involves driving through a potential target area.  looking for signs that the community is a soft target.  A soft target is an area that is not protected and thus allowing a criminal to engage in criminal activity with the least amount of risk.  The primary things that criminal as watching for are active neighborhood watch, police patrols or security patrols from a security services company.  Neighborhood watch can be an effective low cost approach.  However, many communities have difficulty identifying neighbors who are willing to consistently participate.  The neighborhood watch is only as effective as the commitment of the residents to be out there in the community on the patrol.  The high cost of hiring off duty police officers tends to prohibit communities from being able to hire off duty police to patrol their community.  Also, many residents view the presence of police patrols as a sign that the neighborhood is a bad neighborhood.  That perception can have a negative impact on property values.  That perception is frequently accurate, as iIt is difficult to find a community with frequent police patrols that does not have a history of serious crime.  Yet there are many communities in the most affluent areas that have security patrols and continue to have steadily increasing property values.  This is due to the fact that ssecurity guard services tend to provide a presence that deters criminals activity while not threatening property value.  For this reason many communities see security guards as the best approach to residential community security.
