You can't forget the cities that are going as far as putting their public service into danger such as DC DC Fire-EMS members sent to patrol high-crime areas and that was 2 years ago.
Another option if you are actually located in the heart of that town would be to have some materials on hand to "vandalize" your own home for bugging in and lowering attention(only relevant if things are becoming run down looking around you as well). Either way keep those random river banks in...
