I feel safe walking home at night. You would see the local homeless person asking for change, but they’ve always been polite when you say you don’t have change to give them. Literally says “ok mate, no worries have a good night”…. That safe.

I nearly had my handbag stolen in a pub that was on a table. Thankfully, people caught the criminal before he left the pub and I got everything back. My husband's car has hag things inside stolen a few times at night. We believe this is because his car didn't lock properly. Otherwise, I feel fairly safe in Basingstoke.
