Hey neighbors,

You’ve probably felt it — the cost of living in our community is on the rise, and it's hitting both homeowners and renters hard.

💸 What’s Causing It?

Homeowners are seeing increased property taxes, maintenance costs, and insurance premiums.

Car Insurance is Spiking in Our ZIP Code

Due to a rise in car thefts and accidents, our area is now flagged by insurers as high-risk. This means:

Higher car insurance premiums for everyone, even those with clean records.
More claims, more payouts, and less incentive for companies to offer competitive rates locally.

What Can We Do to See a Change?

We can’t solve everything overnight, but we can take action together to start improving our neighborhood:

Increase Safety:

Report suspicious activity — no matter how small it seems.
Start or join a Neighborhood Watch or community patrol group.
Advocate for traffic calming measures, and visible police presence.

Get Civically Engaged:

Attend city council meetings or town halls — your voice matters!
Reach out to local leaders about how crime and costs are affecting our area.
Push for legislation or initiatives that address auto theft, reckless driving, and community development.

Build a Stronger Community:

Organize or participate in community clean-up days – a safer, cleaner neighborhood is less appealing to criminals.
Support or volunteer at local youth programs to provide positive alternatives.
Create a community group chat or forum to stay informed and connected.

Accountablity in the community

Accountability – Bringing Back the Village Neighbors, There was a time when our community truly felt like a village. We knew each other’s names. We spoke to our neighbors. We borrowed sugar when we ran out, and teens babysat the younger kids down the block. There was trust, respect, and
