Travel Advisory - San Antonio Texas

Ya Louisville. Also outperforms in corruption. Not just a Dem thing but this is a Dem town. When they run towns I see this:

I can tell you all areas in San Antonio experience this. No matter if you are downtown or not. All types of cars but yes or Raptors are easy targets.

It seems as if there’s been many threads on here about San Antonio.

Yes. Despite sometimes busy traffic, it’s nowhere near the magnitude of Houston, NY, LA, Seattle, etc. Even downtown, you’re only a few moments from an interstate, a hop, skip and a jump from Mexico, lots of jump off routes.

A lot of the vehicle thefts, and break ins where the truck wasn’t stolen were target rich environments - outdoor, unsecured parking lots with no security, no patrolling staff, some don’t even have cameras.

I got scoffed at for having a valet park my Rap. It didn’t get stolen in downtown S/A... Unfortunately, if you’re traveling in the Rap, you have to take your parking situation into account, the same as if you were driving some high dollar sports car, only worse because the F150 is just so easy to get into.

valet. shit. No one else drives my truck.

Right. Until it gets stolen.

I am confused by the terms worst and best for car theft. Is the list from the car owner or car thief's point of view?

Anyway, if I remember correctly, one of the guys who guy his truck stolen in San Antonio was later recovered by police down by the border. Seems Raptors are good at moving 'goods' or people across the border.

The nice areas in San Antonio are the ones that get hit. The thieves know that they'll score better stuff in those areas. I probably know a dozen people that live in or were passing through San Antonio that had their trucks broken into. I know that the La Cantera area is a prime spot to have your truck broken into.

While it's understandable not to be concerned about break ins, I'm not sure why you'd be losing sleep over a valet either.
