The overall crime rate in the United States has continued to drop steadily after peaking in 1991, when it showed a 313% increase since 1960 in spite of a mere 71% increase in population.

Compared to 1991, 2006 had 3,471,587 less reported incidents of crime, despite having 47,221,484 more members of the population. Preliminary statistics for 2007 indicate even greater improvement across the board 2008 statistics won't be released until the year has come to a close.

Many have pegged the considerable growth and development of the security industry as one of the primary causes for the decline in crime. There is substantial evidence to support this popular claim, including many recent technological advancements that led to the creation of highly sophisticated security systems and devices.

In addition to making these innovations, the security industry has also made them more easily available to consumers through the World Wide Web. A number of locksmiths and security companies have websites that market their services and the latest security products. Some of these companies have even been known to supply, install, and service high-tech wares like wireless alarm systems and biometric access control systems.

The correlation between the US crime rate and the security industry has given many reason to be optimistic, as the latter will only continue to progress.
