The Smart Money: Residential Security System Sales Sluggish

After a spike in purchases of safety, security, and technology products during the pandemic, the latest Parks Associates research indicates security system adoption has stabilized at roughly 32% of U.S. internet households.

Parks Associates research indicates that less than 10% of security system owners reported purchasing their system in the past year – matching a low point since the beginning of the pandemic. When considering the margin of error, this rate is at near parity with recent quarters, but the slow housing market and depressed consumer spending are having an impact on security system sales.
