The plural of anecdote is data :-)

I've lived here my entire life, and I've never had my shoes stolen from outside my apartment, whether the building was locked or unlocked. I'm sorry that that happened to your wife, but it's a single instance.

Low-level quality of life crimes are a constant; I seriously doubt you haven’t been the victim of similar crime.

You're welcome to doubt, but it's true. I've never even had a bicycle stolen (in the city that is; someone stole one from me in the suburbs of Maryland once).
