Customer Story in Atlanta, GA

"...they quickly took care of everything we needed."

The Problem

  • Sydney B., a customer service manager at a local cabinet manufacturing company in Atlanta, noticed her security system was displaying a low battery warning. Worse, the warning was preventing Sydney from arming her security system, which left the entire property at risk for theft or vandalism. Sydney called Ackerman with an urgent request to change out the system's battery.

The Solution

  • Tanikka B. responded to Sydney's call and quickly scheduled Ackerman technician James L. to arrive at the property early the next day. To protect the business in the meantime, Tanikka put Sydney's business on Property Watch, a service Ackerman offers in partnership with the local police to patrol an area on a set time frame. The very next day, technician James arrived right on time and quickly resolved Sydney's battery issue without disturbing the other employees.

Is Atlanta Safe?

    No neighborhood is entirely free from crime—even in bustling, culturally rich cities like Atlanta, Georgia. As Georgia's capital and a major metropolitan hub, Atlanta offers a vibrant lifestyle but also faces challenges related to crime. It's essential for residents to stay informed and take proactive steps to ensure their safety.​

    Here's how Atlanta compares in terms of crime statistics:

    • Safety Ranking: Atlanta is safer than only 3% of U.S. cities, indicating a higher crime rate than many other communities nationwide.​

    • Violent Crime: The violent crime rate in Atlanta is 7.18 per 1,000 residents, equating to a 1 in 139 chance of becoming a victim. This rate is among the highest in the nation for cities of all sizes.​

    • Property Crime: Property crimes are prevalent, with a rate of 40.42 per 1,000 residents, meaning there's a 1 in 25 chance of falling victim to property-related offenses such as burglary, theft, or motor vehicle theft.​

    While Atlanta offers a dynamic lifestyle rich in culture, business, and entertainment, its elevated crime rates serve as a reminder that safety should always be a priority. By investing in a trusted home security system, residents can take meaningful steps to deter crime, protect their property, and gain greater peace of mind in the city they call home.

James did a great job making sure that things were taken care of quickly and took care of everything we needed. Ackerman made sure the local police were coming by and that the building was secured prior to service.
