Out rural I’d be more worried about Ruby Ridge type federal criminals than the common urban filth.
When they came to my house with the GPS to get a reading for the location for 911 documentation, I met the guy down my driveway about a quarter mile.
He said that he needed a reading by my front door. I told him to go ahead. He came back quickly and said “this is close enough.” He met my dogs and wouldn’t enter the house fencing.
