A different kind of Villager came in here and they run off with everything. Equipment that had been left at the pools for years disappeared. Games at Rec centers that had been left in game rooms disappeared. Golf clubs disappeared. Even sound systems were taken from Rec centers. Plus these workers have seen the rudness factor go way up. Very Sad!
One more place where things have changed are parking lots.
There has been some reported purse snatching. So just be aware.

Sorry but other than a few random acts of stupidity, I have not seen what you are describing where I work (one of the villages facilities). As far as golf club thefts, it has always been a good idea not to go to the square with clubs or anything of value left on your cart or to park in the auto parking lot of championship courses with clubs on your cart. Most crimes have been commited by non-villagers who seize an opportunistic moment. Use your head as you would living any where else.
I honestly don't find it to be a "crime wave" and far less than my former home.
