I lived in KW off/on for almost 30 years. I lived in ST for half that time, preferring it over any other KW village, actually. Most of my neighbors had lived there a long time too and had more pride of ownership -- unlike what I found in other villages. I moved away two years ago and I'm sure things have changed since then, but I never once felt a concern for my safety or property. Maybe there was/is less crime there than in the higher-end villages, but I rarely heard of any break-ins or vandalism around me. It's impossible to find a crime-free home anywhere...just use common sense, keep your cars in your locked garage at night, and install security cameras and motion sensor lights if you have any concerns. And get a dog. One that you can love and take care of that barks to announce strangers. Best security system I ever had!
