Protect your community
High Street, Markyate, Hertfordshire. The county in general, but this village in particular, is regarded as "safe". The crime rate, when compared to the UK average, is low. This "safety", however, comes at a price. Using a bit of sarcasm, I could say that one would not commit a crime here because there is nothing interesting to be criminal about. But, on the other hand, boredom and predictability also have their price. In this village, young people have no way of advancing their career and prospects. Self harm, particularly among young men, is common. When it comes to protecting the community, "safety" is only one of the core elements.
