Master-Planned Community in Jackson County Adds Flock Safety License Plate Reading Cameras to its Long List of Security Measures to Future-Proof the Neighborhood

From the scenic landscape and beautifully crafted homes to neighbors waving from their golf carts and families playing at the sprawling amenity center, Traditions of Braselton has endeavored to create an idyllic community for its residents. As the popularity of smart home security cameras skyrockets, the Jackson County master-planned community adds another layer to its own already impressive list of security measures. Traditions of Braselton recently incorporated a number of innovative cameras from Flock Safety at key points throughout its 1140-acre neighborhood. Monitored 24/7, the cameras are designed to read license plates and have had a hand in reducing crime by 70% in neighborhoods where they are employed. While crime is already extraordinarily low at Traditions of Braselton, the measure was made to “future proof” the community to crime that may follow new growth in the area.

“The key to making people feel at home is to create a safe and secure environment,” said Bryan Allen, General Manager of Traditions of Braselton. “Modern families want to live in a neighborhood where they believe the people and things they treasure most are protected. As Traditions has grown over the years, we’ve steadily enhanced our security. We currently have an active Neighborhood Watch in place, and we employ several off-duty officers to patrol our streets. This area is experiencing extraordinary growth, and – sadly – crime can often follow. We seek to remain an oasis. By adding these Flock Safety license plate reading cameras to our current collection of standard security cameras, we hope to deter criminals from setting foot in our community. If they do, there’s a high likelihood that they’ll be caught and prosecuted for their actions. We are fully committed to protecting the people who call Traditions of Braselton ‘home.’”
