Simply put, the Neighborhood Watch is neighbors looking out for neighbors.
The Williamsburg community is continually working to promote safety and a sense of community for all residents. Several physical improvements, programs and policies have been put in place over the past three years that have resulted in noticeable positive changes, many of which have helped jump start the Neighborhood Watch program.
Continuing to build relationships with the Bloomington Police and Fire Departments while celebrating National Night Out foster a successful Neighborhood Watch program and make Williamsburg Village a Great Place to live.
