YMMV - I see zero help with home burglaries let alone stolen bikes. Depends on a lot of factors, just sucks you pay taxes for no benefits.

Depends where you live. SF you are getting a laugh. Tiny rural town you are getting the sherif and his full effort.
100% but I think people in bigger cities probably pay more in taxes (Im literally assuming) and get way less for their money. I know the city I live in, I get not a lot in terms of civic duty for what I fund and just accept crime and theft as a perk of living where I do.
South Bay (area) suburbs.
