Don't assume that your house is safe just because the woods might seem to preclude a getaway other than by driving. Detailed descriptions of burglaries here in HPP indicate that the criminals often hike in through the back of the lot to avoid being seen going in and out the driveway. In these cases, of course, the things taken tend to be portable items of high value such as laptops, jewelry, cash, etc. At the other end of the spectrum, there have been cases where trucks were brazenly backed up to homes and whole loads of appliances and furniture taken. The latter type has not been common lately, thank goodness.
