But how many of those places are big cities?

I would never stuff $8000 of equipment unattended in Chicago, Detroit, Washington DC, New York City, or San Francisco.

Hell, I rarely drive in cities for that reason alone. Some cars get broken into for no reason (probably guys looking for valuables). My preference is to park outside the city (any city) in a safer area, and then take the subway in.

New York is the only one I'd feel comfortable in of the ones you've listed. Others are Seattle, Austin.

>Seattle

I'd rethink that. We're blessed with relatively low violet crime numbers, but property crime is pretty high. We take it as a given that our car will be broken into every once in awhile living here.
