On the 27th, Nam-gu announced that it will carry out the 'Nam-gu Safe Home Support Project' from next month until the end of the year to prevent crimes targeting single-person households in advance and to enhance the practical awareness of the changed residential safety system.


The project follows the recent selection in the single-person household specialization project contest conducted by Gwangju City, with a total budget of 40 million KRW allocated this year.


The background for promoting the project is that there are 28,656 single-person households in the district, accounting for 31.8% of all households, and the proportion of female single-person households has shown an explosive increase of about 3,000 households over the past three years.


Accordingly, starting from the 1st of next month, Nam-gu plans to accept applications for the安心 home 4-piece set support from female single-person households and single-person households aged 18 to 64, including youth, middle-aged, and senior groups, and will proceed with the related project until the budget is exhausted.



The total number of households eligible for support is 190, and these households will be provided with home CCTV that detects movement, door opening sensors, window locks, and double locking devices that prevent door opening from the inside even if the door lock keypad is unlocked.
