I think we can expect more of what happened in the "Not a fun weekend" thread. The degradation of what we consider normal.
Generally, people are becoming poorer and more poor people are coming from south of the border (really there are people from around the world using that route) and from Afghanistan.
Expect, thefts from homes, stores, cars to increase. Organized gangs specializing in such activities will increase. The police won't be able to stop this.
Also, expect organized 'migrants' workers to push out legal citizen businesses. The Migrant businesses will be lower in cost because they will not follow minimum wage/tax laws etc.
As we can see from the Weekend thread; rural communities are no safer then the cities. If you have anything of value; it must be hidden from view.

It has already happened in Los Angeles:
1. People can stand on street corners and vend legally.
2. A person can set up a propane powered mobile kitchen on a city sidewalk and vend legally.
3. The roach coaches (not all of them) make loans and cash pay checks.
There have always been organized gangs. I recall more than years ago that LAPD was arresting car burglars trained in Columbia and stationed in Venice, CA to work specific streets where tourists and locals would leave locked cars and go to the beach. They worked in teams of two.
Rural communities have always had a problem. Tweakers lived in mobile homes a mile up the dirt road from the shooting club. They would break in from time to time. They were producing meth as well.
Yet, my neighbors do not put up study, locked gates or steel mesh screen doors. The guy next door is an example. He has had his house burglarized twice. the last time, the perp. walked down the driveway, through the rotting and unclosed yard gate and in through the unlocked back door in broad daylight with the neighbor present.
