A good way to get a better idea of the threats in your area is to reference federal, state and local crime stats. The Intarwebs and your local PD are full of all sorts of information that almost nobody looks at aside from college students in my field and people trying to write grants. You'll find that property crimes vastly outnumber personal crimes by a huge slice and that certain crimes may or may not actually happen in your area (dreaded home invasions).

As I write this, I just learned about a serial killer in my neighborhood. Ha.
