How to stop breaking and entering home? Even with a camera Police and HOA do nothing to help.

I rent a condominium in Florida for the past 6 months items are taken from the home. These incidents were reported to the Police and Condo. With that being said, I didn't always report the stolen items monthly because I didn't want them to label me as having elderly issues. I am 71 and vibrant with no mental problem. When I report it to HOA they would they take more items. I am feed up. Also they disabled my cameras.

Are the cameras outside in a public space? If not, I'm assuming they're inside your home and hopefully hidden. What kind of items are they taking from your home? Maybe the police aren't doing much because it doesn't add up to a felony amount? We are only asking questions for context. So sorry for this distressing situation.

Thank you for your responses
1.Dr and psychologist indicated that I am mentally sound.
2.The community has had a rash of stealing and the residents are afraid to stand up to this HOA because of retaliation.
3.I,We have determined that it is racially motivated so sad.
4.Sad I can't afford to move now and looking for affordable places.

Are they breaking in where therebis damage to the door? If not change your locks and give no one the extra key.

What solid proof do you have that people are stealing and disabling your cameras? Do you truly think HOA members would steal things out of spite? Really sit down and think instead of making assumptions. If the police saw evidence of actual stealing, they’d have dealt with it.

I understand being worried that others might see it as an aging issue. But it may not be age-related at all. Go to your doctor and explain, and let them do whatever testing they need to do. If nothing is wrong, fine. If something is wrong, you need to know that.

Put very loud siren alarms on your windows and doors? Or move out immediately. I'd move out myself.
