My wife is really big on locking the doors, even though we live in suburbia. She sleeps days, and even locks the bedroom door.

Regards,

Do you lock your doors?

only if i'm gone for more than a day or so.
i live in an almost rural apt complex and there's usually people around to help keep an eye on things. we also have weekend resident nighttime security patrols that help do the same.

Figgered I set myself up for that one. Truth is, she keeps it unlocked when I work at home for a day.

Routinely since there have been a grooup of people who seem to enjoy locating and beating up on senior citizens in the area.

Always, any time of day or night. Doesn't matter if I'm home or away, the doors are locked.

Mostly because I don't like when people do the knock-and-enter thing, or knock, open the door, and yell in "is anybody home...?". Both seem fairly common practice in this neck of the woods.

Pretty close to what happens to me in the porcelain library. Man can't read the newspaper in peace.
