I live in Puerto Rico, and we have ironwork on all our windows, doors, and balconies... this is the safest place I have ever lived. All my life in the United States and Hawaii, our homes were broken into ... getting ripped off was a way of life. Puerto Rico is a haven of safety for me. Also ironwork is artistic and beautiful and keeps the creep factor down.

U.S. Army combat veteran and now retiree (34 years). Before I go to sleep, I check the locks on our 3 cars, check my flashlights, check all the windows, lock all doors, activate the security system, check the emergency outside “panic” lights, check our outside gate locks, check our CCTV system, check the RING camera, check the stove, check the oven, check my Army issued riot stick parked next to the front door, check my M1911A1 and magazines, and check my Sig Sauer P226 and magazines “just to be sure” (I have my CCW PERMIT) 🤣🤣🤣🤣. Anyone trying to enter the house to commit a crime is going to be REALLY SURPRISED! BTW, all our strike plates and door hinges have been reinforced with 3 inch security screws.

A continual light burning throws shadows, so better to have complete darkness? Continual lights and motion lights both, I think.

Nobody will see the blood by the window with the overgrown vegetation. The inside of that window has steel bars to make sure you can end him there out of site from all
