Be aware of your surroundings and avoid distractions such as wearing headphones or talking/texting on a cell phone while walking.
Walk in well-travelled, well-lit areas. Try not to walk alone whenever possible, especially after dark.
Know where you are going and the safest way to get there.
Don’t be a target.
Conceal valuables and make sure purses and packages are tucked securely between your arms and body.
Have your car or residence key ready before you reach the door.
If you need to visit an automatic teller machine, try doing so during the day, if possible.
If you feel unsafe at any time, go to the nearest store or public place.
