>My parents still leave the door unlocked when they are home,

I live in a small town, not rural but not a "city", and I haven't locked my doors in so long I don't even know where my house keys are.

Yeah it is weird, we’ve never really locked our doors as a family either.

Like the extended family I mean.

And we are scattered all over the world in different economic situations and trust levels.

I don’t lock now in a smallish coastal town in Oregon and I didn’t lock when I lived in Houston either.

We often start locking after a reminder but it fades away. We do lock at night time though when we go to bed.
