Dear PoPville

Burglar Bars on Basement Windows – Should they stay or should they go?


Ed. Note: Not the window in question, just a window I like a lot

“Dear PoPville,

I just bought a townhouse on H and 13th st NE (YAY!) and there are still burglar bars on the basement windows… do you think they are still necessary in that area? I’m personally an overly trusting person, but I feel like they are unnecessary in 2021. Any thoughts?”
