My house was burglarized a few months ago and according to the police, it was random houses in our neighborhood.
They don't steal the most valuable things. The criminals who burglarize homes have a desired outcome which is not to get caught, so they have to get in and out quickly. What do they target?
Small, electronic devices: iPads, netbooks, laptops, gaming consoles, cameras.
Jewelry and watches: Not so much. They'll tip over jewelry boxes, but unless there's gold or diamonds, not worth the trouble to sift through a bunch of small things I guess.
They'll leave behind guns (not able to sell quickly and without pain), larger electronics like computers and televisions. If they can't get it in one sweep, it usually stays behind.
That's been my experience and my husband is a veteran investigator.
