and keep a spending diary

If you work - take your lunch with you rather than buying it from somewhere.

When you go grocery shopping write a list (and try to stick to it) and make sure you're not hungry when you go

Lock your doors. Close windows when you aren't home or asleep. Invest in a good fire extinguisher and a smoke and/or carbon dioxide detector. Don't answer the door unless you are expecting someone. For anyone who claims to be from the gas company for example or even the police, get identification and call the employer to be sure they are legit. Don't trust an official looking badge, particularly if the person just waves it at you so you can't read it.

Two women and a child. Be exceptionally cautious. Crime happens in some of the best neighborhoods.

omg that sounds scary

It may sound a little boring/responsible BUT this is GREAT advice, be very careful & invest in decent locks & fire/carbon monoxide alarms, also the poster that stated document EVERYTHING! Both great pieces of advice

Not meant to scare. Just meant to keep you safe. If you practice good safety procedures, you can avoid harm. I'd like to see you stay around for awhile.
