I think that’s the big difference. Around here, residential streets are very narrow, so when it snows, you’re only allowed to park on one side of the street. The plows clear one side to make enough room for cars to drive, but the other side gets heaped high with plowed snow & ice atop the cars. So parking spots are not only extremely rare and coveted, but have to be dug out twice a day or so. If you’ve been tending your ten feet of cleared curb for the day, and someone steals it who doesn’t live anywhere around there, it’s infuriating. Thus: saved spots.
