The safest place is not always where the locks are strongest.

Physical security and the feeling of safety are separate things. You can be perfectly protected in a house where you brace every time someone comes in, and entirely at ease somewhere with a broken lock. What produces the second is how people treat each other, and no amount of hardware substitutes for it.

Ask where you actually feel safe rather than where you are most secure. Notice what is present in those places. That is the thing worth building more of.
