Change My Community

Tags: Community, Neighborhood

I would change how the neighborhoods are put together. I feel like the people are too far apart to be close to each other as friends. For instance, I have no clue who any of my neighbors are and I wish I did. It would also help in emergencies to know who your neighbors are. I know we can’t reposition our houses but it would be nice if everyone knew who their neighbors were.

Students were asked, "If you could change one thing about your community, what would it be and why?"
