Then you are a hell of a lot more proactive/vigilant or live in middle of nowhere. I’ve had law enforcement leave me alone on their facilities at closing time with “close the gate when you leave!” Having never asked me for an ID. In a neighborhood a safety vest and a clipboard would probably get you INSIDE 60+ % of the residences...
I am vigilant, our property is hilly and densely overgrown and I don’t answer the door to anyone I don’t know.
