Social security is one of the basic indicators of human well-being and the growth of society and its individuals depends on meeting this basic need. Providing this platform is very important both in the objective dimension (protection against danger) and in its mental dimension (the feeling of safety, which is the same feeling of security in society). Social security is affected by several factors.

The research method was survey and data collection were by questionnaire. Findings showed that the variables of moral values and social trust affect the feeling of security. Among the dimensions of feeling of security, the feeling of economic security of citizens is low. The relationship between age and sense of security was also confirmed. The feeling of security is explained by 0.28 by the variable of moral values and 0.07 by the variable of social trust.
