When I saw the title, I thought it was actually about small towns - most of y'all are city folk... 'course - I guess I technically am:

Kitchener ON (1976 - later that year) - unknown pop to me, I was born their then moved to...
Fort Saskatchewan AB (1977- ~1980) - unknown pop from that time period - now about 12,000
Rosetown SK (1980 - 1994) - what I consider my hometown to be pop 2000-2200 while I lived there
Fort Saskatchewan AB (1994-1995) - bumming around before University
Winnipeg MB (1995 - 2004) - pop 650,000 (yep, 65% of the province lives in this one city)
Saskatoon SK (2004-present) - pop 200,000 in summer, 220,000 during the school year

OK, yes, I've lived in the city, but I was raised in a small town where, until recently, you never had to lock your door.  Really!  If we went away for a long weekend we'd just leave the doors unlocked so the neighbours could feed the dog and bring in the newspaper.

So, umm what's the address Tim, I need some stuff to sell on e bay.  ;D My little home town was like that also, not anymore though, seems that everyone is getting more and more paranoid. Now if you'll excuse me I need to go fortify the front door.  8)

Locking doors? I don't know of anybody that locks their doors for at least 20 miles in any direction. Ditto for cars, when I was in Brandon my father parked his truck and left it unlocked with the keys still in it while we bummed around with the grandparents. lol, I can see that city life is going to force me to adjust a little bit when I move out...

In my early years I lived in towns of a few thousand but I mostly grew up in coastal logging camps...the smallest one had a pop of about 25 (no following zeros) people.  The largest had about 100 people.  Now I'm in Vancouver for school.....I don't know if I'd call the move to the city a progression but as time goes on I find myself less reluctant to call Vancouver home.
