This is what I was wondering; how the property was set. What the neighborhood was like, etc. Always good to review these type of incidents to think of ways fortify your own home.
In my neighborhood if a black dude walks down the street...everybody knows it and I have 850+ houses. So my fear is white thugs and they tend to run in packs.

Does anyone know what the neighborhood is like?
Very upper, upper middle class.
the kind of neighborhood where this type of thing can NEVER happen right?
Police were shocked by the brutality of the crime.
"People come here because it’s a safe town," said Capt. Michael Palardy, a veteran officer on the Millburn Police Department, who said he can’t even remember the last home invasion."
Neighbors in the leafy, affluent Essex County suburb said the violence of the attack stunned them.
"We always felt safe here," said Jeanne Mixon, who has lived across the street from the victim’s house for 14 years. "My kids walked around at night. We didn’t worry."
"I’m so scared now," said Luz Albarado, who’s lived in the neighborhood since 2001. "I never saw anything like that."
Shirley Lukawitz has lived in Millburn for 13 years and said she’s never heard of neighbors being robbed — let alone being victims of such a vicious attack — until now.
"It’s a little scary," said Lukawitz, 81, who lives on Cedar Street, the next street over from the victim.
