What are the standards of a good location??

[libert19]

Well behaved people around, greenery (it helps a lot with mental well being), a mall in vicinity where one can get daily necessities, bus station/train station near by for commute, electricity/water taken care of, restaurants and hospitals near by for convenience, police station nearby for sense of safety and of course the Internet availability.

I wouldn't want half of those near me:
- mall for groceries and daily needs? No, thank you, mall means traffic a lot of people, a lot of noise,
- a train station nearby? again, noise, traffic, and a lot of shady people
- police station or firefighters or hospital? No, the noise from the cars rushing on patrols would be a nuisance

I didn't mean exactly near (vicinity was wrong choice of word, I suppose), but having mentioned things in few kms within from where you live makes things convenient.

I lived near the only emergency hospital that had a heliport in the city, I wouldn't want to move in that area even for free.

Ok, that must be a nuisance, can understand where you are coming from.

I do not believe that moving to a standard location will solve the problem of insecurity because insecurity is something that the government can fight in a country but pretend not to do anything about, so there's a chance that the new location you move to won't be safe either. For example, before people used to move to Abuja, the capital city of Nigeria, because there was adequate security there, but today, with the number of kidnappings there increasing daily, this is where people believe will be the safest place in Nigeria and today Abuja is no longer safe again.

standard locations can only serve temporarily, so in my opinion I believe that protesting is the best way to address insecurity and force the government to take action.

I understand your point, but if governments were genuinely interested in preventing insecurity, they would have taken action long ago. Instead, they often ignore citizens' concerns, despite protests and pleas for help. Therefore, I believe we should stop relying solely on the government and take responsibility for protecting ourselves against insecurity. One crucial step is securing a safe location, as our health and stability are paramount. By prioritizing our well-being, we can take control of our lives and create a sense of security, even if the government fails to do so.

I feel like waiting for the government to help is a waste of time. They don’t listen, even when people protest. It’s better to focus on keeping ourselves safe. Moving to a safer place might not solve everything, but it’s a good step. Our safety and peace of mind should come first.

In today’s world where there are different types of insecurity around what do you think is the standard to consider while looking for a place to settle down with your family???

For me, the first thing I’d consider when deciding on a location to settle down is a place that’s free from all sorts of natural disasters, like flood, hurricanes, earthquakes and others, I believe this is the first thing to consider before every other thing and any location that’s free from natural disasters can be considered conducive to live.

Peaceful residential place might be the right choice, I never wanted to settle in the city because I don't like the fast moving world, I needed the moment to enjoy everything so somewh near the town with good Neighbors and less crime rate seems the best option but the cost of living might be higher there but definitely economical compared to an apartment in city.

Consider accessibility,
Consider security and proximity to a police station, possibly.
Consider proximity to a hospital or health facility in case of an emergency.

Those are the three key things I consider.
