Scared about increasing crime rate in the islands

It doesn’t feel like my home anymore where I could go anywhere anytime. There was a time when I was a teen, when I used walk to my tuition centre at 3:30-4 am in the morning and still not feel unsafe. We didn’t lock our doors as there were rarely any cases of robbery. Have P-rounds till late at night and felt safe. The men of the islands used to not stare at women but now that has changed so much with the new influx of people.

I was catcalled recently at Aberdeen bazar. A lot of my friends have been eve teased the same way too. I don’t know how did we get so regressive? How is the crime rate increasing so much, the enforcement was not so strict back then and yet it was crime free.
