Well... the place I live in is neither haunted (so not creepy) nor dangerous, so... yeah I pretty much tra la la to my car? Heck, I walk to work when I am on nightshift so... am I an anomaly?

I suppose?
Like i said - not one woman I know of does that. ESPECIALLY if they're in the stupid tv/movie trope of dark/deserted/scary place.

I live in a pretty safe area, but I still walk to my car with my keys in my hand. I used to live in a sketchy area when I was younger, so it might be a habit from back then (you really wouldn't want to stand in front of your car fumbling for your keys there). However, I have a friend who grew up in a really safe town and she never walks with her keys in hand. She always has to look for them in her bag and waiting for her to find them makes me really anxious.

I don't think that's so strange. Unless there's a specific reason you need to be looking over your shoulder but are just ignoring it.

Does the place where you live also have zero violent crime?

I mean, I guess no more or less than any big city? Like my actual neighbourhood is pretty safe, but there was that guy in the van that ran over all those people and that was like... a few blocks away?

Believe it or not, there are a heck of a lot of places that don't really have violent crime. It was a well-known fact in the town where I went to college that if you got stranded after the trains stopped running, you could just call the local police and they'd give you a ride to campus because they didn't have anything better to do. I would frequently walk into town to the 24-hour Dunkin Donuts at 2 AM if I was pulling an all-nighter and wanted coffee. Everyone did it and no one thought anything of it because there was no reason to be concerned.

If I'm leaving from home or work, I always have my keys in my hand because I never keep them in my purse at home or my office, thus I never have to dig them out. In other situations, it's a different story. If I'm wearing something with pockets, my keys go in a pocket so if my purse gets snatched at least I can still get into my car or home and the thief doesn't have that ability. No pockets (lol women's clothes) then there is a fair chance I will be rooting for my keys. I try to always put them in a certain small pocket in my purse so they're easy to grab. I forget a lot, though. Still, depending on weather, time of day, and where I am, I usually fish out my keys before walking to my car. It's not even so much a safety measure as just convenience. Better to do the rooting around in a well-lit, climate controlled (it's hard to root through your purse with thick gloves on) space where I'm not getting rained on.

Yeah if I ever have my keys out its because of convenience, to be honest. Not for protection.
