People who take precautions are not afraid but more aware of potential situations than others.
Please don't assume that because you've been lucky in your life to not experience break-ins, theft, violence, or worse, that it does not exist. Evil is alive and kicking on this earth, and that includes The Villages and even West Chester, Ohio. You can check local Sheriff and Police statistics easily on the internet. If you do, you may be surprised to learn that TV has quite a bit of crime against property. Fortuately, here in TV crime against people is quite low.
Graciegirl, I pray that evil never befalls you. You seem to be a very sweet and loving person. I am sweet and loving, too. But, I am aware that everyone is not like you.

My neighbor who is from just outside New York city said much the same. It is easy to bring up statistics. We compared. You can too.
Thank you for your kind wishes. I have tried to work hard and place myself in places that are a little safer. This is one of them. No place is without unscrupulous people..ever or people who break laws... But I don't look to be hit by cross fire here anymore than I would in West Chester, Ohio. If you haven't been there, it is
relatively safe.
People who carry guns are different than me. I may see the need someday. I don't now.
