When I go out at night I carry a knife, not because it's dangerous around here, it's not, I live in a small quaint little mountain town the most dangerous things around here are teenagers with drivers licenses, summer visitors who don't know what they're doing (It's a mountain not an amusement park!), inconveniently placed trees and deer (don't underestimate deer, those things are sharp!)
But I don't feel entirely safe without the knife. It's a just-in-case thing.
Going out during the day doesn't feel safe either but I don't bring the knife then. Going out means meeting and having to interact with people which always brings a great deal of anxiety...
