It also depends on the pedigree of your thief, which is dependent upon their
intended mark.  Around here, we mostly get crank addicts looking for a quick
grab.  Other parts of the country, the thieves are more professional.

A few years ago here locally a woman got some jewelery swiped.  She was
mowing her lawn, and left the door unlocked while she was
mowing/weeding/cleaning up.  Thief walked by, said, "Hi!", then when she
went to the other side of the house just walked in a took what he wanted.

I lock the door now when I mow the lawn.
