There is no such thing as a secured parking space. Just don't leave any valuables in your car and keep your fingers crossed.

The number of break-ins to vehicles in Vancouver almost doubled in the last eight years.

Hudson building where the Keg/Steve Nash is. Zero issues and it's been 4 years or so but this is also one of the most expensive buildings to rent parking as well.

Break-ins will only continue to be a more common occurrence with the police not giving much care to them nowadays.

Underground gated monthly only. Never have a problem. Don't leave stuffs in plain sight, you'll be fine.

VPD is too busy giving out VI's to care about vehicle being broken into

the addicts don't have money, catch them, release them and they'll do it again

car enthusiasts have more disposable income
