Searching online here quickly at TOTV brings up one instance....in Feb, 2009, Feb. 11th, on page C4 of The Daily Sun, a report of a forced entry here in our community. I'm sure there are other reports.

Before we moved here, I was told by a friend who has lived here for many, many years, that there are some thefts, break-ins, etc, but not on the same scale as outside of the community. While that isn't definitive proof, I do realize that no area is immune from crime. My neighbor had a delivery of aluminum for her new cage arrive while she was away. Her housesitter was awakened in the night by noises outside. It was discovered that thieves had tried to steal the material. At daylight, many pieces of the unassembled structure were found on the golf course hole her house faces.

Living here I feel much safer than where I did live previously. Neighbors are more aware of "different" in the neighborhood, they watch out for each other, help others, willingly offer time and energy to make their friends and neighbors feel happy and cared for. There seems no other place quite so nice.. Well, there probably is, but I have a lot of pride in my new hometown and can't imagine any place is quite like TV.
