The City of Kelsey by M. Kelsey

Crime measurement and statistics for police departments are very important when it comes to money allotment, staffing needs or termination and it is also used to determine the effectiveness of new laws and programs. There are three tools used to measure major crime in the United States: Uniform Crime Reports, National Crime Victimization Survey and the National Incident Based Reporting System- which is currently being tested to replace the Uniform Crime Reports. Although there different tools used to measure crime, crime rates can be deceiving. Each different tool reports a different type of rate, crime rates, arrest

This paper focuses on an in depth community assessment of the past, present, and future of Shelby, Mississippi. Shelby was once a banner cotton center of Bolivar County. Shelby residents were once referred to as some of the most hospitable and happy people in the state.

Individuals of The Kelsey community carry a huge responsibility to preserve the land, as well as the ways of the community. It is very clear that this community is a small one, yet still, a strong and very productive one. The individuals of this community have learned to work and communicate with one another, in harmony, to survive and improve their way of life together. Initially, they survived on what they themselves grew; making sure that it was of quality. Throughout the years, as the community grew, by reproducing and evolving,

Morgan City is a town that carries a unique trait about it that few other cities do. Although it isn’t the biggest place, the sense of community and watching the city grow is some of the most incredible things. The businesses around town, especially the local ones, instinctively have the duty of aiding our community, instead of every man for himself mindset that the rest of the world seems to have. The result of this unity pays off, especially in the recent years. What before was a small passerby town is now bustling with activity and continues to gain new homes and enterprises annually. Although it continues to grow every day, it remains a rural location where a resident can have a healthy amount of resources without having to leave the

A junior in Brownsboro High School, Ashley Dixon was asked an important question, “What improvement would you like to see in Brownsboro/Chandler.” In receiving this question, Dixon pondered for a while and gave her response : “ I would like to see more places to eat, more areas of entertainment, and new schools hopefully soon.” However, she added, “the only issue is that they would have to raise the taxes, and find some investors, but overall, it would make the lifestyle here more entertaining. We would also expand the area and hopefully attract more people into town.” Altogether, Dixon just wants the best for her hometown, her family and her peers.

The “ Keep Indianapolis Beautiful” organization is the reason there is a great appreciation for art, nature and sense of community in Indianapolis. As we know it today, Indianapolis is at its highest peak in employment and rated as one of the best cities to relocate to in America for better careers and quality of life. However, back in the 1940’s Indianapolis was referred to as a “raw, dirty and unkept city…”, a city people should avoid. Gangs, drugs, loitering and other illegal acts surfaced many neighborhoods and communities during that time. Considering where Indianapolis is today, one would never believe this city used to be ins such despair. Thanks to many civic leaders, devoted women and passionate residents, Indianapolis went from a trashy, neglected city to a place of beauty, pride and opportunities. Throughout this profile, I will identify how KIB’s legacy was created, its contibution to social capital through “private action for public good”, and why KIB is vital for not only Indianapolis, but the world in its entirety.

Since then, Sandy Springs became a much more diverse community, with a growing minority population and a wide range of housing options - apartments, small homes, and mansions. Across the state of Georgia, residents are polishing and rebuilding their towns. Recently they have demolished many shopping centers and apartment homes to build higher end businesses, causing older businesses like Selene’s to relocate. Slowly Sandy Springs has lost its essence and independent roots by supporting the new franchises. However she stated, “I’ve enjoyed watching my neighborhood’s transition over the years. Still, I hate to see new businesses replace older businesses that have been part of the community for years”. (S. Garon, personal communication, March 5,

To create a colony on Pluto there would need to be water, food, oxygen, and shelter. But after the basics are provided for, things would need to be provided that would make life living there enjoyable. A small town like Fort Lupton is similar to a colony on a planet in that basic necessities are provided for, but more is needed to keep citizens in town. A Fort Lupton city planner needs to continue development of the basic necessities because the many developments the city has made over the past two decades have improved the lives of the cities’ citizens but there still is more improvement that can be made.
