If I were the enemy.

I've been thinking of these logistics, at a very high level, regarding my own neighborhood. There's some natural barriers that exist between us and a downtown area where stuff would most likely start. We are cordoned off by a few things...there two streets on one side that have access, and one street on the opposite side going up a steep, winding hill before reaching any houses. Those are streets, though...people wouldn't necessarily access that way, for sure. There enough people in this small part that we'd be able to easily keep an eye on the two vehicular points but also any back ways people could tromp through on foot. We are also very high up compared to the downtown area. The house across the street from us (we know the owners well), would be able to hear lots of funny business down below.

I wish this reply was as fun at Iain's rambling, but this isn't my style so much. That's my excuse.
