Notice From the Everett Police Department:

The City of Everett sends Bordeaux HOA notices when crime rates rise and information on what we can do to prevent crime from happening in our community. We have the neighborhood watch signs, no trespassing signs, police patrol routes and community watch members who are actively involved with keeping our community safe. This summer we had 2 vehicle prowls which was the lowest amount of criminal activity since our community was built and it is a testament to the success of the neighborhood watch program and the benefit of being an active community member. We appreciate everyone who has been apart of this success.


The next step that the Everett Police tries to get communities to do is get temptations off the street and possibly out of the parking areas. Those temptations are typically vehicles but can include bikes, trailers, etc... If you are parking your vehicles on the street we ask that you please try and park in your garage or your driveway. Studies have shown in the City of Everett that communities with less vehicles parked outside are less likely to be targeted by prowlers who love communities that park a high amount of vehicles outside. We have personally seen prowlers who just go through our community and just check to see if our vehicle doors are open one by one to see who happened to forget that day. These are the type of people we want to obviously prevent from coming to our community and with your help we can make this happen.
