As I live my life here in foggy and cold San Francisco every day, trying hard not to step in human feces, trying hard not to step on the 4.5 MILLION heroine needles handed out by the city for free each year, and running away from the increasingly violent homeless population, I spend a LOT of time looking at condo listings on the North Coast.
When they say “24/7 security”, what exactly does that mean? I notice that very few listings mention “armed” security. Does “24/7 security” just mean there's a gate and/or fence installed that just happens to not fall down every day or every week? Stateside, of course, 24/7 security means a front desk person, armed guards, regular patrols, etc. I'm looking at condos US$60,000 and up.
I've been to DR twice but only on short vacations. I'm 49 so I'm very early on in my relocation research. I'm reading all I can about residency requirements, etc. Would just like clarification on what “24/7 security” means there. I don't seem to see “armed security” mentioned until you get up in to the US$150,000 range.
