Im not enjoying the battle as my property and possessions are at risk of being stolen!!!

As i said, if i was still living on base then i would have no problem with declaring my own personal crusade against the local criminal scum as i would have the safety of my secure base to return to every night whereas i have to live here so i dont want to be targetted by the scum bags yet i need to protect my possessions so i need to find a middle ground.
