<p>Sorry to disappoint Rational, but you need to get a dose of reality. If you are expecting to find a 100% safe environment anywhere you are out of luck. I’ve lived in CT a number of years and never felt unsafe but common sense needs to prevail. It doesn’t take a genius to know that it’s not a good idea to venture into a dubious neighborhood late at night. Even in the most affluent areas in the US crime occasionly happens - and sometimes it commited by those you would not suspect. You can either take you chances and expereince life and know that the overwhelming odds of not being a crime victim are in your favor or you can hide from everyone and everything to play it safe.</p>
