Are iron bars on basement windows necessary?
Different area than S.Philly maybe, but her area gets a fair amount of foot traffic, people watch out for one another, etc. Also there has been an 'epidemic' of burglaries (and this from a cop) throughout the 14th district over the past couple of years.

I hate to say it, but you probably have to think like a thief when thinking about...
