Week 44 - Rescued Critters Food Stamp

Hi Folks,

Miles, a safe and clean neighborhood ... 

Really!

June 24 through July 8, 2019

Bi-monthly, the Tucson Police Department graphically charts the incidents of crime in the whole city. The Miles Neighborhood comes up clean time after time. The physical boundary of the Miles Neighborhood, Broadway and Campbell, always has a little illegal activity going on in the hustling foot- traffic like robbery and personal confrontation. To the south and west of those two major arteries, nearly nothing. See red pizza pie slice outline above.

Here is the link to the Tucson Crime Mapping website. https://www.tucsonaz.gov/police/statistics

Check it out now and again, it will make you sleep better.

The Fourth of July weekend was a bit rough on us what with learning about the Revolutionary War Airports, lots of vacationing neighbors and a stalwart donor nursing a miserable cold while on the job in El Paso.

This week we donated 12.2 lbs. of pet food and $46.19 in cash and two check.

See you Sunday,

Peter
