There has been an increase in crime lately. Several of you may have noticed new bars being put up on homes. In the November 2008, two men were pretending to work for a security company in order to gain access to homes and scout out their security. Multiple vehicles have been vandalized in driveways this year.

In order to help improve the situation we'd like to encourage people to form Neighborhood Watch organizations. We'd also like to create a network for communicating risks and concerns quickly with each other, so that we can all be alert and aware.

Also, see this PDF from the Albuquerque Police Department (courtesy the Mirabella HOA) on improving your home's security.
