I agree, no moving - I love my house and know that we
can have the best
neighborhood inside the beltline with a little effort!
& I did just read that the cops got the shooters! Good work all!!

criminal activities happen around here like that. Although, please forgive
me; coming from NY I am mostly oblivious until the robberies began stirring
fear just weeks ago. I lived in NY for more than 22 years and have never
encountered such in my neighborhood. Especially after gentrification; I
mean although the crime was only a few blocks away, that is where most of
it stayed. I am positive though that these activities will pass and/or
become less frequent when it is realized criminal activity will not be
tolerated near our homes. Please, nobody move, that is how it will end.
This neighborhood is worth every effort. ****

One that I noticed is not a rental, the other is more difficult, it's
around the corner from my house so all I see is the black Mercedes come
down the street, go into the cul-de-sac behind my house and leave 45-60
seconds later, I started thinking he was a "delivery" guy when my neighbor
and I saw him drive by with his overhead interior light on counting a large
amount of cash.
I'm in Victoria Place, so we do have our HOA to help with these things,
too. They are doing everything they can as well.

Was the drug related activity happening out of a house that you noticed?
If so, do we know if the property is rented or owned? If rented, perhaps
we can find and appeal to the owner. All of you seem to be doing
everything you can to reduce the crime activity on our blocks and it seems
now just a matter of time. ****

We as neighbors need to figure out what we can do to combat this. I know
we've got the neighborhood watch, but what else can we do? There have to be
more aggressive steps we can take to get the violence out of our
neighborhood. I recently asked police to step up patrols on my street due
to some drug-related activity I've seen just in the last few weeks.

Full round of shots fired. Was SO loud, I knew it had to be close.
Seconds later, I saw two dudes jump the fence from 2304/2308 Milburnie
into the yard of 2335 Stevens. Both were young black men, one had
shoulder-length dreadlocks. They turned and ran down Stevens Road, toward
Chatham.****

I called 911, and saw another neighbor doing what I assume was the same
thing. Police came within minutes, but the suspects were long gone. ***

This is too close for me. Shots were fired at this same location, what,
two-three months ago? Just seems like things are getting worse. Not sure
how much longer I want to stay.
