Almost everyone I know who drove from Peninsula 10-15 years ago into city had stories about smash and grabs in the city, but nowadays my Nextdoor on the Peninsula (Mountain View/Los Altos) the top three stories are suspicious person walking around the neighborhood, someone getting their catalytic converter stolen, someone getting everything taken from their car locked or unlocked. It could just be the algorithm driving these stories to the top, though. I have had my unlocked car rifled through multiple times. I lived inside the loop in Houston for five years in the 1990s and had my car broken into multiple times as well (even inside apartment complex gated garage) so it's just an easy crime to commit and multiple targets in very small area in urban places.
