Sunstkitts.com recently published an article with crime prevention and safety tips for your home. It has about 7 tips. In my opinion, the following two are the best:
Install a peephole in the door – and use it.
Don’t let any stranger into your home when you’re alone, no matter what the reason or how dire the emergency is said to be. Offer to make an emergency phone call while the person waits outside.
Also, one tip includes a mention about keeping entrances to your home well-lit. I think that is wise advice, because it will allow you and others to spot anyone out there, and it will provide safety for you when exiting and entering the house.

How about adding security cameras to the perimeter of your home. At the very least, fake cameras with a flashing led light.
