Burglaries happen mostly during the times when people are expected to be away at work during the daytime and evening hours.

Most burglaries occur between the times of 6:00 AM and 6:00 PM but of course a burglar could decide to break into your home or place during anytime.

Then if you're a business then the burglar will likely break in after closing time or early morning hours or at night.

But home burglaries occur mostly during the day and evening when people are expected to be gone because they don't want to risk entering a home when someone is home.

But burglars do sometimes break into homes while people are home but it's less common.
