One needn't be scared (not in advance for sure), but it is wise to be cautious and aware of the surroundings. If a neighbourhood is such that a slow moving car is probably someone trying to rob you, it does make sense to move to a safer part of town/country/planet. One can choose to stand up for oneself, but unless it is a joint move of most residents, it is futile - one can't change the town by themselves and going into risky situations (with or without a gun) is a way to live a shorter life.
