Located in sunny South Florida, West Palm Beach can feel a lot like paradise—but it’s also got one of the highest crime rates in the nation for both violent crime and property crime. With a relatively small population of just over 108,000, the city and surrounding area have substantially higher crime rates than other places.
Burglaries per 1,000 residents | Theft per 1,000 residents | Motor vehicle theft per 1,000 residents | |
---|---|---|---|
West Palm Beach | 8.77 | 38.4 | 5.12 |
United States | 4.69 | 17.45 | 2.37 |
Some of the most dangerous neighborhoods include Lake Worth and downtown West Palm Beach. While nearby areas like Northlake, Palm Beach Island and Golden Lakes all enjoy lower crime rates, they’re still above the national average. So wherever you live in Palm Beach County, a home security system can help protect you.
Fortunately, it’s relatively easy to acquire a permit for your home alarm system in Palm Beach. The City of West Palm Beach’s Alarm Ordinance mandates that each new alarm system is registered with the City for a fee of $25. Each registration lasts for one year and requires renewal by the first day of the City’s fiscal year (October 1st).
Alarm permits are non-transferable and a new alarm user has 30 days to register their alarm system. Failure to do so prior to a police response will result in a $50 fine for each false burglar alarm response until the permit is paid in full.
Once your permit is paid, subsequent false alarms can result in further fees. While the first and second false alarms are free, the Palm Beach Sheriff’s Organization imposes fines depending on how many false alarms your system has had in a given year. It’s worthwhile to have a monitored system to ensure that your mistake doesn’t result in false alarms.
Occurrence per calendar year | West Palm Beach | Palm Beach Gardens | Lake Worth |
---|---|---|---|
1st | $0 | $0 | $0 |
2nd | $0 | $0 | $0 |
3rd | $75 | $0 | $50 |
4th | $75 | $50 | $50 |
5th | $100 | $75 | $75 |
6th | $100 | $75 | $100 |
Professional installation can be worthwhile as it can keep you from having to work with complicated technology and ensures that you don’t set anything up incorrectly. Newer homes with simpler wiring tend to be best for professionally installed systems.
For homes with older wiring like those located in the historic district or Lake Worth (where some homes date back to the 1940’s), DIY installation is the best option. DIY home security systems have wireless cameras and monitoring devices, which makes installation less intrusive to older homes.
Keep in mind, most companies only offer one installation option, so decide whether or not you’d like DIY or professional installation before choosing a home security provider.
