Violence IS RARE IN Condominiums
The Gun Violence
Archive estimates
that an average of
100 Americans are
killed by guns every
day and hundreds
more injured, so
it isn't surprising
that some of those
incidents would occur
in condominium
communities. On the
other hand, it is clear
from the sequence
of condominium
incidents
summarized here
that they do not
occur very often.

Indeed, as a percentage of the nearly
350,000 HOAs in the United States and
more than 73 million people occupying
them, violent attacks in condominium
communities would be classified as
"statistically insignificant."
That doesn't mean they are
insignificant, however. As Dawn
Bauman, senior vice president for
legislative affairs at the Community
Associations Institute (CAI) observes,
"One death is too many."
The recent incident in Texas drew a
response from CAI, but the response,
Bauman says, was intentionally
understated-an email message to
HOAs nationwide suggesting how
boards might respond if they received
media inquiries about the violence.
CAI did not issue a press statement on
the shooting, she explains, because "we
don't view [violence] as specifically
a condominium issue," and didn't
want to "sensationalize" the incident
by suggesting that violence occurs
more frequently in condominium
communities than it does. "It is very,
very, very rare," she emphasizes.
The industry professionals we
interviewed agree that violence in
condominium communities is no more
common than it was a decade ago. But
they also agree that association board
members and managers are more aware
of the issue and more concerned about
it today.
"ACTIVE SHOOTER" INSURANCE
One tangible measure of that
concern-growing interest in an "active
shooter" insurance policy McGowan
& Company, Inc. began offering three
years ago. The insurance covers
medical and death benefits for victims,
counseling, clean-up, public relations
and a variety of expenses that aren't
covered by general liability policies.
"It's the company's fastest growing
division," Joel Meskin, senior vice
president for community association
products, says.
Meskin doesn't know how
many policies have been issued to
condominium associations, but the
