Sorry to hear about your theft. We've lived here 12 years and have been very lucky, but I've always been cautious. Last night, our neighbor's van was broken into - a GPS and tools were stolen. We live in a nice neighborhood in Valrico. Three policemen live on our street -- one at each end and a third in the middle, but that doesn't stop the thieves.
Yesterday, a police helicopter was flying low over our neighborhood -- looking for someone I'm sure.
Don't keep any valuables in your car! Keep your doors at your home locked. Don't open your door to strangers, but find a way to let them know you are home so they don't bust the door open, thinking the house is empty. Get a dog if you don't have one, but remember to make him/her a part of your life.
I'm sure you'll eventually come to love Florida - as we do.
