Not that I’m actually scared to be alone, but my biggest concern is home invasion.

Where the hell do you live? I live in a pretty large city, Manchester, and I’ve never been concerned with random attacks of violence.

I guess I used the wrong term. Not "concern", rather "fear". The risk is relatively low in my neighborhood, it's just a fear I have as someone living in a SFH for the first time. I've lived in dense housing most of my life and I felt more "safe" being in close vicinity to other people.
