How safe do you feel at home?   

I can remember when I was a kid we never really locked the doors and we would sleep with the windows wide open with out any fear, I feel safe in my home now only because I have windo grills and security doors after being robbed twice...people say it is like a gaol but in actual fact it sets me free a bit as I can have all my windows open even when i am not at home so i guess there are two ways at looking at it...

I feel safe in my home because my area is relatively safe area.I often leave my windows open and ocassionally my doors and I have never had a robbery or break in.The fact of the matter is though that there hav ebeen incidents in surrounding areas but somehow how community has always been somehwat insulated from this.
I dont know if its because our community most has professional people who normally leave early and come back in late so they have no time for indulging in criminality .Or if the high levels of construction taking place in our community means that there are almost always workmen there during the day to serve as watcmen has anything to do with it .
The fact though is that I can often just walk out late at nights and I will always be safe

I feel very safe in my house because I live outside of a small town in Florida and just about everyone around here has at least one gun. In Florida you are allowed to shoot someone if you feel that your life, family or property is in jeopardy. The only thing I worry about is an alligator coming up out of the canal in our back yard which is why we have flood lights...mostly to protect the cats and my little dog from becoming a late night snack if one happens to show up.

We don't normally lock our doors at night or when we go someplace because my daughter lives nextdoor and she might need to borrow something.

My ex's cousin used to live in a very bad neighborhood back in Maryland and they had bars on the windows of the first floor of their house and kept the doors locked all the time. I felt very bad for their daughter, having to grow up like that. When we lived in Maryland we did lock our doors when we went to bed and went we went out, but we didn't keep them locked during the day.

I feel pretty safe at my home. We've had some issues here that made all of us uncomfortable like people coming into our yard and stealing things and stuff but we installed some flood lights and the light popping on all the time paired with us constantly going to check what was going on pretty much stopped people from entering our yard anymore. We do however lock the doors at night and lock the doors whenever everyone is inside during the day. It's just a precaution because we never really know what could happen but usually I feel rather safe here.

my town is so small that you can leave a door open in your house and not even be home and you know that no one is going to go in and steal something. personally i don't think that i could feel any safer. our town isn't really a know for brake ins or much crime. most of he kids are getting high or other things to be causing crimes. its pointless to get a security system in my town, we don't get people form other towns coming to ours due to the fact that its small and every one knows everyone else.

I feel safe but I'm always cautious. You should get to know your neighbors so they know your habits and you theirs, that way if anything ever looks out of place you'll both know. I guess you could get a security system if its makes you feel a little safer. If its peace of mind the cost shouldn't matter.

Hi there!

I also feel safe at home. I think there's no other place that anyone couldn't feel any safer except at home. But security is still important. We always lock our gates and doors cause you'll never know when will danger come so its better to always be ready and secured.

We don't have any high-tech security system. Only a light that turns on and off if someone passes our entrance gates. We don't have cameras inside the house that would warn us if someone is intruding. It's just something to startle anyone who would try entering at nights, uninvited.

We just make sure that we lock all our gates, doors and windows at nights. The last person to sleep must check the locks and the surroundings. We also have a dog outside and he is a very alert dog. If someone would touch the gate he barks.

Our entrance doors are quite big and its made of Narra tree. It's a very hard wood so, it's quite difficult to enter the house. But still, we do our best to keep the house safe.

Ciao!

I feel my home the safest place. Even if it is under the leaning tower or under an irrupting volcano, I feel am safe. I love my home and I know the nuke and corner of my house. Will anyone fear in place where they like to be.

Honestly, I never really feel safe anywhere. You can have all of the security in the world, and not feel safe.

we dont have any home security systems, and i sleep alone in my room. i feel safe if i lock my door.
