Is it safer to leave the porch light on all night or off?

Asked by miasmom (3495points) March 11th, 2009 from iPhone

Or does it not matter at all? I think if the light is on, then it is easier access for intruders, but other people might happen to notice also, which could be a deterant for intruders.

If it is off, it might be harder access for intruders? But then I’m sure they have flashlights, but that will also draw attention.

Any thoughts?
