While human presence on-site can go a long way in keeping criminals at bay, it may not be the most cost-effective solution.
Cost Limitations

According to the United States Department of Labor Bureau of Labor Statistics, there are over 21,000 security guards employed in Massachusetts The average pay rate for these guards is $15.16 per hour but can be a bit higher based on a variety of factors including experience level and whether the guards are armed or not.
