Multi-Family Property Management Safety by the Numbers

In the United States, over 100 million residents call multi-family housing home. This places a tremendous responsibility on property managers who grapple with a myriad of challenges - chief among them the safety risks often overlooked by the general public.

Recognizing this pressing need, Apartment Guardian has been at the forefront of delivering cutting-edge safety technology tailored specifically for multi-family property management teams.

Since 2012, we've partnered with hundreds of management companies, introducing them to our revolutionary Panic Tap - a small, user-friendly device that connects you to 911 emergency services in 3 seconds.

But the scope of multi-family property safety extends far beyond the realm of individual worker encounters. The statistics below underscore the critical necessity for comprehensive safety measures that prepare your entire on-site team for any emergency scenario.
