Leave your doors unlocked. Helps sometimes.

Leave no bags in sight. They smash windows take the bags open them down the street and dump what they don’t want. My window was smashed a couple years back in front of wild colonial took a backpack with a pair of shoes in it. Now I hide everything

I’d just point out everyone’s situation is different and 3 days a week is much different than 5 days.
If you can have a much higher quality of life for the majority of a week, that’s much different than a higher quality of life 2 days a week.
Also, I have a job that I have west coast colleagues that I can schedule calls with on my drive at 5pm. I have to do those calls regardless, so I start my day later and end later. So being in the car for an hour wouldn’t be a waste of any time. That’s much different than if I was on a train doing crossword puzzles for 2 hours a day.

Yeah even when my bag has nothing valuable in it I throw it in the trunk. Sorry this happened though.

A coworker just had luck renting at US Rubber in Olneyville. I've heard mixed reviews from people, esp about thin walls, but it's a large place that seems to stay rented. And the price is right. You might also look at mill buildings in Pawtucket and Central Falls.

Cafe Nuovo is one of the best in terms of service and quality.

What they often do is: walk down the road, pull everything out of the backpack looking for money or anything of value, and then they leave it on the ground.
I bet if you walk around the area around Hot Club you’ll be able to find some of your stuff.
I always see stuff on the grass behind the church at the bottom of Wickenden st. (Right across the off-ramp from Trade Joes)

Don’t leave anything in your car. You want the folks cruising around looking in car windows for things to quickly grab to pass yours by. I’m sorry this happened to you.

Folks at those types of jobs statistically have a high turnover, and if he's got a great personality and is good looking, he won't last long at all (they go find more sold employment, these jobs are stepping stones!)
So ... You better just go let him know.
If you're also male, it's not as big a deal as you think... Just go in and make a light-hearted compliment about his appearance, the way straight men typically do not...
If you're a woman, he might not be making a move on you because he's at work but really wants to, so sadly the ball has to be fully in your court, but at least you can be bolder in calling him attractive than if you were male.
Best of luck!!!

Yeah I’ve been seeing piles of glass all around providence, especially on weekends when a lot of people are parked on a backstreet that doesn’t get too much foot traffic

I would not be commuting during peak hours. I can create my schedule and would change it to the best of my ability to work around AM and PM rush hours.

If you haven't already, search out and read some of the threads about commuting to Boston. Three days a week would deter me from moving to Providence. (I commuted to Cambridge five days a week for five years from PVD and it was horrible.)
