Neighborhood Watch
What is Neighborhood Watch?
Most neighborhood crime prevention groups are organized around a block, neighborhood, or subdivision. These groups receive strong encouragement from law enforcement because communities where citizens observe and report suspicious activity tend to experience lower crime rates. The objective is to create an environment that removes opportunities for criminal activities, rather than solely focusing on changing the motivation of offenders.
Chancellor Green Does Not Currently Have a Neighborhood Watch Program
Currently, the Chancellor Green community does not have a neighborhood watch program. However, the safety and security of our residents remain a top priority.
​
Should you ever witness any suspicious activity, please don't hesitate to take action. Contact the Spotsylvania Sheriff's office at 540-507-7200 to report any concerns or potential threats. For emergencies, dial 911 immediately to receive immediate assistance.
Your vigilance and cooperation play a vital role in maintaining the well-being of our community. Together, we can create a safe and welcoming environment for all Chancellor Green residents. Stay aware and stay safe!
