not only is it dark the bushes and shrubs are out of control. What's with this town? More cops need to be hanging out on these streets and not just 3rd and down.
Recently, I had someone come up on my porch at 11:30pm and started messing with my door. I hadn't had my lights on all night (watching tv). I called 911 and it took 10 minutes for a cop to show up. 10 minutes and I live downtown. The new police station is like right down the road.
Wilmington needs more cops, road repairs, sewer repairs not a convention center. How will that benefit the residents if half of them move away because of crime.
By the way I think Wilmington is #17 for the most dangerous cities in America.
nice.....
lack of police
