Increasing Personal Security Risk in Populous Cities and Tourist Prone Areas

 

Orange county – A popular place to live in California. It is the third most populous county in CA with more than 3,114,363 residents. The large coastline, legendary theme parks fine restaurants nice sunny weather attracts millions of visitors every year. Orange county ranked 24th in travel impact among North Carolina's 100 counties. Growing population in conjunction with large number of tourists result in economical boom as well as risk of become a victim of criminal activities. Sometimes even the police also don't like to follow up on crime reports so if something happens to you, you're basically screwed on your own.

Although the crime rate in Orange county has declined by 20% over the past 10 years, but that would not be the factor in consideration for personal safety. Every day, 75 girls under the age of 18 go into prostitution and 65 boys go into hardline crime. According to the statistics as of 6-3-14, there were 367 arrests made, 994 charges laid, 29 # weapons recovered, $190,079 property recovered and $910,920 drugs seized. Total recovered $1,100,999. Every 15 seconds, a house, apartment or condominium is burglarized once, according to FBI statistics.

Another key factor responsible to increase the crime rate is natural calamities. Whenever a disaster strikes, it also provides opportunity for the criminal element to take advantage of people and the situation. Because of lack of preparedness, these unpredictable events are more likely to increase chance for looting, theft or armed robberies on the part of many citizens.

What Patrick Henry, President at Aegis Academy said is that “We are responsible for our own safety and security. A great way to prevent these problems is to be prepared to defend yourself in any criteria. Everyone should learn to evaluate the environment from a practical risk mitigation perspective. Firearms, edged weapons, protective skills and common sense can all be useful tools in the self defense area – if you learn to use them!”
