Is the area around the apartment safe?
I'm sure everyone is very concerned about the security system of the apartment and the safety of the neighborhood, so before choosing an apartment, you can ask about the combination locks, such as whether you need to enter the apartment by entering the code or need to sense the code key to enter. Is the apartment monitored? If so, the security factor will be greatly increased.
