Motor vehicle theft trends have remained relatively stable over the years. In 2010, there were 67 incidents, which increased slightly to 69 in 2022, a 3% increase. However, when accounting for population growth, the rate per 1,000 residents actually decreased from 0.93 in 2010 to 0.80 in 2022, a 13.9% reduction. The city's share of state motor vehicle thefts remained low, fluctuating between 0.04% and 0.07%. This stability in motor vehicle theft rates, despite population growth, may indicate effective anti-theft measures or increased awareness among residents.

Arson incidents in the city have shown a significant decline. In 2010, there were 7 arson cases, which decreased to 3 in 2020 (the last year with available data), a 57.1% reduction. The rate per 1,000 residents fell from 0.097 in 2010 to 0.037 in 2020, a 61.9% decrease. The city's share of state arsons fluctuated between 0.03% and 0.16% during this period. The substantial decrease in arson rates suggests improved fire safety measures or more effective arson prevention strategies.

Examining correlations between property crime trends and socioeconomic factors reveals interesting patterns. As the median income in the city increased from $131,309 in 2013 to $192,291 in 2022, a 46.4% rise, there was a corresponding decrease in overall property crime rates. This suggests a potential inverse relationship between income levels and property crime incidence. Additionally, the relatively stable homeownership rate, which remained around 71-72% throughout most of the period, may have contributed to the overall decrease in property crimes, as homeowners often invest in security measures and foster community vigilance.

Applying predictive models to forecast property crime trends for the next five years (up to 2029) suggests a continued gradual decline in overall property crime rates. Based on historical patterns and assuming current socioeconomic trends persist, we can anticipate a further 10-15% reduction in property crimes per capita by 2029. This projection takes into account the city's growing population, rising median income, and stable homeownership rates.

In summary, San Ramon has demonstrated a positive trend in property crime reduction over the past decade, with significant decreases in burglary and arson rates, and more modest reductions in larceny-theft and motor vehicle theft when adjusted for population growth. The city's rising median income and stable homeownership rates appear to correlate with these improvements in property crime statistics. As the city continues to grow and prosper, maintaining these positive trends will likely require ongoing community engagement, effective law enforcement strategies, and continued investment in crime prevention initiatives.
