Increasing numbers of people no longer view the safety of their neighbor- hoods as the sole responsibility of the police.

Explanation:
All of the above. Haiti is located near a major fault zone, half of its population at the time lived in densely populated urban areas; their weak government, which is a remnant of colonial impact, is very poor for the same reason and therefore did not have buildings up to code regarding earthquakes.
