Sacramento Protests Could Mean Broken Windows for Local Businesses

Sacramento always has its fair share of broken windows at downtown businesses. Unfortunately vandalism is an inevitable reality of running a storefront business in Sacramento. However, Sacramento may see a sudden rise in number of broken windows at businesses over the upcoming days and weeks? Why is that? It seems like we should probably ask Charlotte North Carolina.

What Do Charlotte and Sacramento Have in Common?

First of all Charlotte has had a number of protesters over the last week. As almost everyone in Sacramento knows, we have a large number of protesters in Sacramento as well right now. Most of these protesters are peaceful individuals that have caused no property damage. That being said, there have been a few which have caused extensive property damage. Some of this property damage includes broken windows at a number of different storefront businesses. This is great for local window companies but not good for the local economy. Commercial windows can cost a great deal of money.

Many businesses (especially franchises or large corporations) will factor in property damage as part of the revenue losses for the year. These losses are something that these companies take into consideration before opening new locations in an area. Therefore vandalism such as breaking windows can be a determining factor when businesses are looking to open new locations or hire new employees. Vandalism can keep people from being employed in the local community. Vandalism can also stifle travel to the Sacramento area. If tourists and business people do not feel it is safe to visit Sacramento it can cost local businesses valuable income. It is important to respect local businesses so Sacramento can continue to grow and improve in all aspects.
