Livability & Safety

 

We desire a safe and livable neighborhood. Knowing your neighbors and supporting local businesses can help. We also believe more City, County, and State resources are needed to support communities disproportionately affected by crime.

Swander’s voice, sad and lonesome as he sang the night’s first song, Maple on the Hill, has a wa
