A lot of it depends where you are. I lived near the downtown core of a large city, and people would (usually gently) pick the fruit off the tree next to the sidewalk. Few would venture onto the property itself, even though there was no fence and an abundance of fruit trees. It was not much of a bother. I currently live near the downtown core of a small city. You could go to bed one night with an abundance of fruit, far from the street, and awake the next day to find nothing.
