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.
