This quiet Phoenix suburb began getting inundated with robberies last year. Though the stolen objects weren’t overly expensive, no one likes the idea of having their home entered when they’re not around. As a result, a group of Chandler residents got together and formed a block watch. After the members of the watch collected information about break-ins and suspicious people in the area, the information was submitted to police, resulting in the eventual arrest of a number of suspects. Now residents are wiser and the break-ins have ceased. The idea behind the initiative is that robbers usually target easy areas, so the key is to make it more difficult. Now garage doors in Chandler, Arizona are kept closed during the day and residents with broken garages call Chandler garage door services to secure them, creating yet another obstacle for would-be burglars.
