Hello Pennsylvanians! I just moved here from New Orleans - to Lehigh Valley specifically. I've realized I have a serious fear of basements. I have refused to go in them while apartment hunting. (I'm currently staying in an extended stay hotel.) How do you all keep your basement area safe? I have a worry that someone will be squatting in the basement if I choose to live in a house rather than an apartment complex. The fear is to the point I don't even think I want to live in a townhouse. I noticed a lot of basements also have random doors to "nowhere" and remained shut/locked. This makes me very uncomfortable.
