Which way does YOUR front door open

I live in the north western part of the USA and my front door opens inwards. I have never personally seen a door that opens outward.

Inward.
The screen door opens outward, though.

Inward, counter-clockwise, but my security screen opens outward and clockwise. I've never seen a front door that opens outward. Plus I couldn't have a security screen if it did.

Yeah I'm thinking every door that has an outer screen door is going to open inward. Otherwise they would both have to open outwards, right?

A good carpenter will install an inward opening door for the simple fact that when your carrying in goods its easier to do so.

But I like to have an outward door because you get to have more space inside your house

there's more too it than that, in colder climates it allows you to open the door in heavy snows, it allows you to close the door in high winds, ever try closing one that opens outward in a storm
I've only ever seen a few outward opening doors in my life and always thought they were installed by a retard

Storm door outwards, regular door inwards. I'm not sure I've ever seen a door that opened outwards. At least I've never lived in a place with one. I can't think of a single good reason you would want a door to open outwards.

I have never seen an entry door that opens outwards in a residential house myself. For those that have one, how to you feel about the hinges being exposed on the outside?

I recently installed an exterior door that swung out because it was a back entrance to a basement and the stairs impeded an inswing. Pretty rare, though.

Yup, in the case of an emergency you don't want a mob of people smashing forward on doors that open inward.

If your door opened out wards than your hinges would be on the outside. U could easily take the door off the hinges that way.

That's why they make concealed hinges.
