My parents have lived in the same apartment, above the UCSF Parnassus campus near the end of 5th Ave, for decades. It requires climbing multiple steep hills and/or stairs, it ends in a cul-de-sac, and like many buildings in the city, you have to climb stairs yet again to reach the door - the first floor is ground level in the back, but above the carport in the front.

Since the hillside is forested, we get plenty of traffic from wildlife, but I can only think of maybe once or twice that any homeless person has dared ventured through to collect cans. Despite this I'm told that there WAS a burglary, but it must have been in the 70s, because following that the management put bars over the first floor windows, which have existed for my entire lifetime.
