Are more Trump signs indicative of Trump winning?

A common theme I hear from Trumpers, at least where I live is that they have only seen Trump signs and therefore that means no one likes Biden and everyone loves Trump. While there are a lot of Trump signs where I live, I don't think this is true. My neighborhood, there are quite a bit of Trump signs.
Now, another question: why is it Trump supporters are seemingly louder and in your face about their support for Trump? I see giant lifted trucks driving around in my town with Trump flags on them. I thought Trump supporters are the silent majority? In my town, the Biden signs have also been destroyed and the people who were putting them up stopped because they kept getting destroyed. Yes, the Trump signs do get destroyed on occasion. But guess what? The police for some reason are more motivated to go after those who destroy Trump's signs rather than those who destroy Democrat signs.

It could be a sign that Trump will win your particular neighbourhood, but it isn't really a metric for the general election.

Because trump people tend to be a pretty angry bunch with a violent streak.
I think liberals and moderates are afraid of property damage if they put a Biden/Harris sign on their lawn or car.
I can give you an example. My friend in NC (w/ a Biden sign) was in her front yard w/ her two kids and a large man in a truck screamed at her:
"fucking liberal piece of shit!!"

Biden signs are attracting unwanted property vandalism here.

why is it Trump supporters are seemingly louder and in your face about their support for Trump? Because like attracts like. Ineffective, disgruntled, blowhards see themselves in Trump. If anything can be gleaned by his tax returns it seems he's pretty effective at stirring up shit and that's about it. They probably support him for that reason alone. That's a sad state to be in, not that they're that good at empathy and introspection, so most of them probably haven't even thought that much about it. Go Mer-ica!
