We have neighbourhood watch to keep an eye out of each other as best we can.
We I live in a free standing house with garden, not a gated community which many live in, one is always making sure security gates are locked day and night. No one is totally safe!
Would live in Hungary in a small village quite happily if it is still safe to walk alone day and night, this is a luxury we do not have, unless we go out to places like mentioned in my content.
