I know it could happen to anyone but I haven't had issues with packages being stolen from my house.
I have had issues with UPS delivering them to the wrong house but that's it so far. I have seen FedEx and UPS both hide my boxes behind bushes or signs so they aren't in plain view.

No but some neighbors have, especially around Christmas. Our UPS guy is great and if I forget to leave the gate unlocked he will jump over the fence and hide them on the porch (once in the middle of a snowstorm - I felt so bad!)

Not where we currently live, but yes. I had a package go missing at an apartment once, another time at a different apartment, and another time I had just moved into a house and the mail person didn't deliver (I'm still mad- they just put "no such address" and sent it back, which took weeks even though it was tracked. Ugh! So, in other words, it "went missing" for a few weeks while he was sending it back. There WAS such address, I had just moved in, so maybe he didn't recognize my name at the house, but he still should have delivered it to that address, the address for which it was marked.)

no but the UPS guy at work is the WORST - so many times he marks us as getting neighbourhood packages and they come yelling.

I had a neighbor steal a package from our front door step in broad daylight while I was home.

I've had 3 get stolen in the 9 months we've lived here....but I get TONS of things delivered so my odds still aren't bad.
Usually If I'm going out and expecting a delivery, I leave our outer vestibule door cracked and lock the inner one, with a small note asking them to leave the box and pull the door shut (so the package is then locked in).
