If one comes to our small town in Indiana that's very busy during Christmas..there are several parking lots BUT most people park on the street feeling much safer. Shops and apartments near and too many hidden spots in a parking lot with possible other cars and Vans. Blind spots. I would also park on the street and not a lot.

I once parked my van in a grocery lot once and came back to a damaged van. Because it was in that lot and they even had cameras...I still was responsible for the damage. I will always park on the street now.

Even our police tell us to NOT park in the big box stores parking lot. My neighbor a female state police says to park near a restaurant.

That’s a small town. This street has city buses going down it, as well as tourists in a strange town.

Be safer in a parking lot with hundreds of empty spots on Christmas Eve.
