In 10 years living in PVD, had my car rummaged through maybe 5+ times and my apartment broken into once via a window AC unit.

The car breakins were generally uneventful aside from my sons RC vehicle that was in the trunk and an old radio taken from an old VW Vanagon.

I caught the thief in the act one day coming home from work for lunch; he had broken into the first floor apartment, took all of the keys, and was trying to steal that VW van.

I had no idea what he was doing when I came home and he was off before I put 2+2 together.

Unfortunately crime is a major memory of mine when living in PVD and Pawtucket.

Property crime is, yeah. I've never felt unsafe in Providence for the most part (I also won't go wandering into Chad Brown just for fun), but car break INS do happen annoyingly often
