Definitely not in my town.

I wouldnt do that anywhere at all

Easily. Many do.

Nope! Wouldn’t do that

Probably, but no one would.

This is an affluent town surrounded by a few towns that do not share our economic stability. Camden NJ is also a very short trip down the highway to us. Feel free to google that warzone if you arent familiar with it.

We are a low crime area, but 95% of the crime in this town are outsiders coming in to steal. Generally, “diverse youths” or meth addicts. The other 5% is usually HS kids possessing drugs while doing dumb shit in their vehicles, and drunk Italians hitting their wives.

I used to live in a town where my car wasn't safe in an underground garage withing a gated coproperty, with common and individual garage doors (for a total of 3 barriers).

Don't do it.

I've taken sooooo many stolen vehicle reports from this exact situation. I don't care if it's 5am and -30*F - someone WILL disappear your car sooner or later. Shut your s*** off and lock it up.

I do sometimes leave my car running but I lock the doors. I’m not sure if my big headed baby girl would welcome a car thief or not and I’m not willing to risk it.

It might depend on whether I’m driving the stick or automatic transmission.

You know I used to do that back in the day. I just wouldn’t do it now, but not because of increased risk. I think the risk has stayed the same. It’s me that has changed.
