Yes a guy in our neighborhood posted on our neighborhood FB page with a picture of his almost brand new car that was stolen out of his driveway overnight - probably a $50K car easy. I wanted to post (but didn't) saying 'what was it doing in the driveway? You have a garage!? At least half of the homes in our middle class neighborhood don't park their cars in their garages - I laugh as I back out of my (heated) garage on mornings they are out scraping ice/snow/frost off their running to warm up cars. Guess it's petty - our next door neighbors do have 4 kids and he has a handyman biz so I understand their 'having a lot of stuff' stage of life, but a lot of these folks don't even have kids still at home and still have full garages.
Well at least it's useful stuff. 😆 One neighbor was a professional magician and he kept all his show supplies + he used to put out a huge Halloween display that kids would come for blocks around to see. He retired from all that and sold off all that stuff, telling me, now we can finally park our cars in the garage! Five years later, cars are still sitting in the driveway - a squirrel got in under one of his cars and chewed up a bunch of wiring, complained it cost him $3 grand to fix. Don't know what's in that garage now!?

My garage is my shop. No car has been in it since 1990.
