That's my point. Everyone and their dog has a ring doorbell now. Property crime was definitely worse in the 80s and 90s, but you'd only hear about it through the grapevine.
Stats I’m seeing put it north of a quarter of households with video doorbells, and rising. Not literally everyone, but a whole lot. I’d say more than half the houses in my middle-class suburban non-tech-hub-city neighborhood have one, and this isn’t some early-adopter gadget nerd crowd.
You might be incapable of recognizing hyperbole. I am saying that home security cameras are popular. They are, and videos from them are regularly shared in local news stories and on social media.
