Neighborhood Block Party

Neighbors join an outdoor ward meeting.

A neighborhood block party is an event organized by residents of a neighborhood to promote involvement, relationship building, and community safety.  A few good reasons to have a neighborhood block party include:

  • To have fun.
  • To get to know your neighbors.
  • To increase the sense of belonging in your neighborhood and the community.
  • To organize a city-sponsored group such as Neighborhood Watch or a Neighborhood Association.
  • To learn about your neighborhood's history.
  • To start a tradition.
  • To promote networking relationships among neighbors.
  • To increase a sense of neighborhood safety.
