Good dead bolts and arm yourself. Im on the east coast and and in the country, it seems super neat everyone on board about cameras - but I've never seen anyone give a shit about that here. They eventually get caught but sure don't care about it in the moment. A good deadbolt puts the burden of breaking into your house onto the frame of your door, if you don't trust the frame of your door you've got bigger fish to fry.
Its about why you got robbed, they took your tools they either needed them or sold them, no one wants to buy your vacuum, even at the pawn shop - which may be where your tools ended up at.
Im old fashioned and probably completely out of touch, but my house isnt a walmart or some retail store where I need to get them on film and make sure I get the best picture of them. The door, a good deadbolt is as strong as the door frame, the windows, outside of bars, you're looking at an alarm system and relying on someone else - which you will always be doing if you arent home at the time.
The old saying is locks keep honest people out, because past that you're physically breaking something - the door frame a window etc and that draws attention.
