Where I'm from in Canada, we've had lots of problems with black bears in areas where housing overlaps bear habitats. There's more emphasis now on not creating "problem" bears by avoiding the conditions that would cause them to become habituated to humans and food-conditioned. It's still an issue but at least there's a lot more awareness now.
