Well, you toss the dice, you arm yourself, and pray that you aren't shooting a police officer, your neighbor, or even worse - your kid who sneaked out - when someone crawls through the window.
Better yet, get an alarm system.

Jesus man, get your head out of your ass. Crime happens everywhere, and usually when you least expect it. Sure, it happens more in bad areas, but no one is exempt from having bad shit happen to them no matter how safe their neighborhood currently is.
The fact you are so sure you are safe makes you are perfect target. Just because it hasn't happened to you yet, or someone you know, doesn't mean the worst isn't going to happen tomorrow. There are countless murders, rapes, home invasions, and kidnappings that happen in totally safe areas, all over the world. You're also a possible target any time you leave your house.
Neighborhoods also change. Sometimes they start out nice and they go downhill fast. Goes the other way too.
I could spend 2 minutes on Google and pull up countless reports of horrible shit that happened to people "in the perfect family neighborhood."
