October is Crime Prevention Month, and few things discourage criminals more than a home security system from HTC.

The website Bestplaces.net rates Horry County personal crime at 62.9, 37.5 more than the national average. That would include theft-type crimes with no force or threat of force against the victims.

HTC offers a FREE self-install security system with a 3-year monitoring agreement, and plenty of accessories for you to automate your home. You can choose from doorbell cameras, indoor/outdoor cameras, thermostats, smoke detectors and much more.

Beginning in November, you can get the same self-install system for $149 with NO CONTRACT.
