Throughout the Island, neighborhoods are tight-knit and friendly. For example, neighborhood groups are active in litter cleanup and crime watch programs. Successful neighborhood watch programs bring neighbors together and help them protect themselves against potential problems such as thefts and burglaries. Crime, a concern of everyone in the U.S. today, is no different in Galveston than any other community its size, police say. The Galveston Police Department has embraced the principles of Community-Oriented Policing in an effort to partner with the citizens of Galveston for a meaningful reduction in crime. The city has been very carefully divided into patrol areas unique to the neighborhoods in those areas. Crime prevention initiatives have been developed in each of those areas that emphasize programs for youth, the elderly, code enforcement, narcotics, prostitution, graffiti, and other such nuisance crimes that result in a deterioration of our neighborhoods.
