With almost 1,7 million vehicles stolen, the year 1991 is the worst year for car theft in US history. Thanks to the numerous improvements made in vehicle manufacturing and with the progress of anti-theft technologies, the number of stolen vehicles has dropped to a little over 765,000 units per year. Unfortunately, the authorities manage to recover only 40% of these stolen cars.

According to the National Insurance Crime Bureau "Hot Spots" report, the worst cities in the US for car theft are the following:

• Modesto, California. With a reported number of 623 car thefts for every 100,000 residents, Modesto is the fifth-worst city in the US for auto theft. The people of Modesto have reported 3,428 stolen vehicles in the previous year.

In the worst placed Californian city on this list, cars are stolen at an annual rate of 752 thefts for every 100,000 residents. A total of 6,748 car thefts were reported locally.
