Crime is often about opportunity. The key is not leaving items in your car --- even seemingly low value items. A co-worker had their car broken into b/c they had an old gym bag sitting on the floor, and someone smashed the window hoping it had a laptop or some other valuable inside. I rarely leave anything inside, and certainly never within sight, and I've never had a break-in (or attempt), whether here or traveling abroad. And I spend a lot of time in Central America, where break-ins are more frequent.
