I had my car broken into a few times, but generally I've lived in decent areas and I'm more likely to be the perpetrator rather than a victim of crime.

It may be a little weird, but I do have a baseball bat that is never too far away which I keep in my room. Although I live with my parents in the country, we did have one believed incident of an intruder who fled when my mam woke up. Nothing taken, just slightly worrying and we tightened security etc.
