Neighborhood Watch is a program of neighbors watching out for other neighbors during times when criminal activity would most likely occur, and reporting suspicious activity to police. 

A police officer patrolling your neighborhood may not recognize a stranger in your yard - but your neighbors would. Neighbors know who you are and the type of car you drive. They may be the first to notice a burglar at your window or door - or a strange car in your driveway.

Identifying your property is crucial to its recovery. Click here for more information on Operation Identification.
