Top 10 Cities for Vehicle Thefts

The National Insurance Crime Bureau recently released its annual top 10 list of "hot spots" for vehicle thefts nationwide. Did your city make the list?

By Eric Gilkey | Updated on June 22, 2011

The National Insurance Crime Bureau’s (NICB) 2010 Vehicle Theft Study, “Hot Spots,” contains vehicle theft rates and rankings for Metropolitan Statistical Areas (MSAs) in the United States from 2008.

The United States Office of Management and Budget (OMB) defines metropolitan and micropolitan statistical areas according to published standards that are applied to Census Bureau data. The term “core based statistical area” (CBSA) became effective in 2000 and refers collectively to metropolitan and micropolitan statistical areas. The 2000 standards provide that each CBSA must contain at least one urban area of 10,000 or more population. Each MSA must have at least one urbanized area of 50,000 or more inhabitants.
