RE: porch pirates aren't so common.
While I don't have empirical data, I've never had a package stolen from off my porch until this year. In my neighborhood, we've had a rash of car break-ins and missing deliveries. The thing is, I live in a relatively nice neighborhood. And I've heard of more porch pirates this year than in years past. It was bound to happen with more online shopping occurring.
And it is common enough that USPS, UPS, and Amazon all provide temporary boxes for concerned customers to come pick up their packages.
