Yes, but we know that those were the exception rather than the rule. I tend to think that even if the lands were completely safe (which probably was not quite the case) the hobbits would much rather stay in their shire than go off in adventures. After all, they didn't really know much about the world outside anyway during the third age and still they did not dare to leave their Shire
