Insurance is a requirement of my mortgage, since I can't afford to outright buy the home I want the person lending me the money gets to set certain terms, therefore I've never considered not having it.
Although often the home insurance packages bundle several services including falling limbs, theft, fire, burst pipes, and protection against someone else being injured on your property, or having their property damaged, i.e. your tree falls on their car.
The reason I am generally unconcerned with break-in is that I believe it to be a fairly marginal issue. I think if you looked at all the statistics available from police or insurance companies, while it can vary wildly I'd guess home intrusion is typically very very infrequent. And while people have free will, statistics being simply a measurement of ignorance, lacking evidence of violent enemies I'm not worried.
