I reckon a small pretty base is less likely to be attacked imo. Something small and with lots of fancy gardens and gargoyles is less interesting than a giant sprawling base. The cost of summoning a gargoyle is huge, you want to make sure you get a fuckton back. And you can see on map which bases are 1/2/3/4 players. So if you are going to attack one, you're going to attack a 4, particularly if offline. 

Not true for PvP though people will fuck you up on the road just because they can. Its hilarious how many waste hours camping even the spawning zones.
