But are they actually safe, people in Longview and Tyler, Texas may wonder? I know I do.

Homeowners have different opinions on where the safest spots in their homes are when it comes to protecting their property should a house burglar get access to their residence. You probably have certain places that come to mind, as do I.

But that's the world we live in and we need to do our best to keep our homes, and more importantly our families, safe.
