More homeowners and small businesses are installing surveillance cameras inside and outside their properties, and police departments across the country have taken notice.

“Without a doubt, more people have security cameras than ever before and it’s increasing regularly. Ironically, within the last couple of months, I put one on my house,” Acworth, Ga., Police Chief Wayne Dennard shared with SDM.
