YOU’RE MORE LIKELY TO HAVE YOUR CAR STOLEN IN ALBUQUERQUE THAN ANY OTHER CITY IN AMERICA. NEW NUMBERS FROM THE NATIONAL INSURANCE CRIME BUREAU SHOW THERE WERE MORE THAN 10-THOUSAND VEHICLE THEFTS IN THE METRO AREA LAST YEAR…THE HIGHEST RATE PER CAPITA IN THE COUNTRY.
THE BUREAU SAYS CAR THEFTS HAVE MORE THAN TRIPLED IN BERNALILLO COUNTY SINCE 2013. MUCH OF THE BLAME IS BEING PLACED ON REPEAT OFFENDERS.
