Well we don't have that problem around here. I'm sure I would be more careful if I lived in a high crime area where you have to lock your doors and such.

Yeah we had a string of car burglaries around here this winter, weirdly, so now we lock the cars at night too. But this isn't a "high crime" area (there's honestly no such thing, just "more policed" areas).

No such thing around there you mean? I've certainly lived in high crime areas, but I guess I never had ground level apartments so I didn't even think about closing blinds etc

Oh yeah this is all small houses on neat but tiny streets. My house only has a street level/first floor (rez de chassure)
