Default Breaker Box Outside?

I am getting a new house (should be complete next month) and I noticed
that the breaker box is outside!

I usually see them in the garage or maybe even a closet, but is it
good to have it outside?

Downsides I can think of:

1. Thief can turn off all my switches from outside
2. Must keep padlocked and I could lose the key
3. Rain/water could possibly get in there messing up stuff?

Are these valid concerns?
