Is there any correlation between having a garage sale and subsequent burglaries at the site? That is, should one avoid having a yard sale at ones residence in order to avoid a later break-in?

Our opinion is that there is generally no connection between burglaries and garage sales in San Carlos. These crimes are usually random or there is a relationship between the suspect and the home owner (e.g. attended party at home, cleaning person, relative, acquaintance, etc.). To our knowledge, no burglaries in San Carlos in recent years have involved someone who previously attended a garage sale at the site.
