I'm not making light of your cautious attitude... I agree that it's better to be safe. But there is no way to completely prevent that information from becomming known under certain circumstances. If a mugger takes your wallet he has your address too...
Contrary to popular TV and movie scenarios, most petty criminals (such as muggers and car theives) are not interested in stalking you after the crime and making your life a living Hell. They want a quick getaway and to remain unknown.
If a thief gets my car, well - he gets my car. If he comes to my house he has no idea what is in store for him... but I do, and I'm willing to replace the carpet afterwards.
