Neighborhood Update

You can work with your neighbors and local police to reduce your home insurance rates.

Just for the record, a few years ago two moms tried to get together a Neighborhood Association for the purpose of getting neighbors to know each other and share interests, resources, and community awareness. I think their main goal was sharing babysitting and play groups for their young children but they really did put forth quite a bit of effort into coordinating block captains, bimonthly meetings, a neighborhood garage sale, a regular newsletter, a website, and a few other party/events. I recall the second or third publicized meeting Hubby and I went to had about 7 people total out of the neighborhood attending (including the coordinators). A representative from the College Station Police Department came to talk about home safety, home insurance discounts (theft deterrents, etc), neighborhood awareness, possibilities for neighborhood watch type associations, etc. It was a really nice presentation she did, I felt bad there were so few people attending.
