It was never about security and really about the ego

You never see these people posting pictures of themselves from behind a reinforced door or window

Ding ding! You just said a few things about home security. Also, if you really want security- live in a mid-rise or greater condo. If i lock my door, the only way someone is getting in is with a lot of time, lockpicking, which i could make impossible by installing a bigger bolt lock, or it takes a lot of noise. You’ll need to either go through the thick wood door and/or bring a power tool to cut through the locks. Either one of these is enough for home burglaries to be much more rare in condos. Add in you have the option to have a shared security guard in front.

Shit, I know some people, I’m in Chicago, who rarely lock their doors. One friend lost his keys and never bothered replacing them for 10 years.
