Additionally you must live in areas where police respond to that sort of thing. Many don't.
Hm. Every LEO I've talked to tells me that when someone calls the cops and says, "My front door is open and I think there may be an intruder in my home," they smile at the radio. Then they drive fast, lights on, grinning like maniacs the whole way. Why? Because it's a high-adrenalin, fun call, that's why! LEOs live for this sort of thing. Calls like that are why they got into LE work in the first place.

Obviously, they'll get a bit tired of you, and won't respond quickly or maybe at all, if you call them more often than "very rarely."

Then again, if you're stupid enough to leave your front door wide open behind you more often than "very rarely," well ...
