When we first moved to GA we moved into an HOA controlled neighborhood. We put our Hybrid TT in storage literally down the street from us. It was great being so close to home, but it was in a very unexposed area. The lot could only be seen from two sides in a low traffic area. At night it was very dark. Needless to say, our TT was broken into twice in 1 month after being stored there about 6 months. The first time I figured they were looking for valuables, found none and left. The second time, I figured they were looking for a place to stay.
We moved to a lot a couple miles away right along a US highway which is much more exposed and has better lighting. We've been there almost 6 years without incident. We pay $30/month for uncovered storage. Cameras are very important as is controlled access. Our storage center has both.
We never leave our Motorhome at the house overnight. It's about 4 feet too long for he driveway anyway. We do bring it home to get it ready for trips and when I need to work on it/winterize, etc.
