Happy Valley security tip
A long-term setup for owners
Only about 11% of Happy Valley homes were rented at the 2021 Census, so most owners can fit fixed security. A monitored alarm, keyed window locks, a deadlock and screen on the back door, and cameras covering the driveway and back yard make a sound, long-term setup.
Happy Valley homes and what they mean for security
Happy Valley's streets wind through the foothills, with brick family homes from the 1970s onwards on sloping blocks, many with pools, decks and back yards hidden from the street. Homes near the reservoir and reserves back onto open land.
