‘Small Habits. Big Difference.’ — Lock It Up
September 23, 2026

UMB is one of the safest areas in downtown Baltimore. Each week, UMB Police and Public Safety shares a small habit that can make a big difference when it comes to keeping our community safe.
Week of Sept. 27: Lock It Up
Take a few extra seconds to secure your belongings:
- Secure your bicycle or scooter to a bike rack with a u-lock or two.
- Put valuables in your vehicle out of sight, like in the trunk or glove compartment.
- Stow electronics, wallets, and other easily portable items in a zipped bag or locked desk drawer.
