If you don't want to have your car stolen as the summer travel season starts, avoiding California is a good idea because seven out of the top 10 cities in the United States for auto theft are in the Golden State.
In one recent year, as many as nine California cities made this list!
Do you know the way to San Jose? A lot of car thieves do, as evidenced by the Bay Area corridor leading the way in auto thefts. In fact, San Francisco leads the nation in auto thefts with over 29,000 vehicles stolen in 2014. During this same year, the only cities not in California were Seattle, Washington; Spokane, Washington; and Odessa, Texas.
