    Yes, it is a reasonable precaution in an urban area, especially since I live alone and have no desire to use the trusty ol .357.

    Always. There are always stories on Crimewatch of people being murdered in their beds, I don't plan to be one of them.

    Yup. Actually, we lock them as soon as we come into the house, no matter what time of day or night.

    We set the security alarm before going to bed.

    Yes and I keep them locked when I'm out of bed too.

    My address is 1600 Pennsylvania Ave., Washington, DC.

    I keep a spare key under a copy of the Declaration of Independence that I've thrown out. ;)

    I believe most doors in NY are locked unless someone is travelling through them at the time.

    I lock my front door - I don't want a random coming in & casting spells on me.

    But as for my bedroom door, I leave it wide open just incase the dog wants to come in & stand on my face like usual.

    Doors are locked and alarm system goes on with a few keypad punches downstairs or upstairs.

    I feel very safe here, but it is all hooked into the police/burglar, fire, medical, heat sensor and CO detection detection center of the whole system, so it is good to have it ALL on and monitored while I am asleep.

    Usually...

    My address is

    10A Tran Nhat Duat Street
    Tan Dinh Ward, District 1
    T.P. Ho Chi Minh (Sai Gon)

    This is a high rise apartment building which shuts off the elevators at a relatively early time in the day. I didn't give you the floor or the apartment number.

    Have fun guessing.

    Near Washington DC? You bet. I don't care how far out the burbs we are, the doors are locked, the alarm is set and I am armed with numerous pairs of high heels that are within arms reach. Can't say much for our guard dog other than his breath would be enough to scare most intruders away plus he's a 13 year old Cocker Spaniel.
