I agree that it's a good idea to have some sort of monitoring even if you are in a "safe" area. You just never know and it provides piece of mind. For me, I've used my cameras to monitor deliveries of packages and to verify that my garage door is closed when I have those absent minded moments.
I would also add to this discussion where I avoid anything that is cloud dependent. Don't want my personal info being harvested in the back end with no assurance of controls/gates as to what they may do with it. In addition, I don't want to have equipment that works perfectly fine be forced into obsolescence because the manufacturer chose to force the equipment to no longer function. My Hikvision equipment is not cloud dependent and is still functioning almost ten years later.
