First order of business: change ALL of your locks on your house. It’s a simple, sure way to know you are the only one with a key! Youtube videos can help if you need it.
Get to know your neighbors. They are the most likely ones that will call the law if they hear a disturbance and can’t get ahold of you!
Consider a camera system on your house. Front door, driveway, back door. Positioned so you can see faces and license plates.
Buy some wasp spray. Not only for wasps but it is the BEST mace substitute because you can spray someone in the face 10 feet away.
I would not divulge to any stranger that you live alone. There was a question a couple days ago about “does anyone yell for their SO when you take delivery to feel safe when home alone?” There are some good home safety tips in that thread.
