Incident Description

Which type of area was your bike stolen from?: 
Front of building in residential area.
How long was the bike locked in this location?: 
More than one year, but I use it every day (It was locked at my apartment)
Incident Description: 
I locked my bike up at night as I always do on the bottom of my stairwell. When I woke up to ride it to work this morning, it was gone. It's unusual because the bike wasn't in a place where no one can see it. It was surrounded by apartment buildings. I assume someone must have cut the lock and took off with it late in the night.
