Ray do you have an alarm system ? I do not live in a high crime area but about 15 years ago fortunately nobody was home when both my neighbor's homes across the street were broken into by an armed criminal. That incident really shook me up and within a week I had an alarm system installed and have felt very safe ever since. Plus, the reduction I get on my home owner's insurance for having an alarm pretty much offsets my alarm monitoring fees. Suggesting this as an option if you can't make a move now.
