A broken window attracts much more attention than someone going thru a door. A lot of people would probably think that someone going thru an open door has reason to be there ... especially in an area where there are a lot of transients.
Except in rare circumstances, someone breaking and/or going thru a window is going to raise red flags with those in the area.
