In recent years, the quiet town of Collierville, Tennessee has seen rapid growth. Newcomers from all over the world are moving to the area known for its historic southern charm and friendly reputation. Although residents welcome these newcomers, the citizens of Collierville wanted to ensure that population growth didn’t also lead to a growth in crime.

Donald Terry, an engaged HOA board member in Collierville, took it upon himself to resolve the situation. He wanted a neighborhood security system that would maintain the town’s safe reputation without inhibiting its growth. 

“We did not want something that would stand out like this was a crime zone,” explained Donald. “We wanted something that would be there for us when we needed it and that we could rely on. That’s what we found with the Flock Safety license plate reading (LPR) system.”

Flock Safety security cameras provide an affordable, aesthetically-pleasing way to bolster Collierville’s safety measures. Residents can rest assured knowing that if a crime does occur, they can trust Flock Safety’s unique Vehicle Fingerprint™ technology and machine learning to provide them with the evidence needed to solve the investigation.

“You can’t ever go back and wish you had it,” said Donald. “We have it, and that’s what gives us the power over anything that may or may not happen.” In addition to helping solve crime, the presence of the cameras proactively reduces crime by assuring those who might be tempted to act badly will be caught. 

Easy HOA board member has access to the Flock Safety footage, but Collierville’s residents took safety a step further by allowing local law enforcement  automatic access to the camera network. Many law enforcement agencies in the Memphis area, including Shelby County Sheriff’s Office, already utilize the Flock Safety camera network. 

“I would highly recommend any neighborhood to look into getting a Flock Safety system,” said Donald. “It gives them the opportunity to partner with police and ensure the safety of the residents.”
