You should clearly identify each section in your paper, so it is clear what area you are analyzing. You should focus on your life today (e.g. don’t talk about where you lived last year or where you went to high school). Where are YOU at risk for property crimes and physical assaults? Use 4-10 diagrams or photos, for EACH of the two evaluated areas, showing safe and risky locations in your life. Make sure that these are in enough detail to show the reader specifics. Explain what makes a location safe or risky. If a location is risky, explain what can be done to make improvements.
