2. NPR (?) had recent report on similar in Japan
The report described women-only sections of parking garages, with better security, etc. In some cases, stores would deliver packages to their parking area.

It reminded me of how things were when the first parking garages were being built in the US, particularly those with attendant/valet parking. Often marketed with safety as one of the advantages.
