Maintaining a Safe Neighborhood

The Highlawn Neighborhood Association (HNA) is home to a Neighborhood Watch program. The Highlawn neighborhood is a quite, pleasant area of Huntington . It’s the goal of the Neighborhood Watch to maintain the quality of life and safety of our area.

There are many ways for you to help keep Highlawn a safe and friendly neighborhood:

1. Light up the neighborhood: turn on your exterior lights at night, install motion detecting lights, and dusk to dawn lights.

2. Be neighborly: get to know your neighbors and alert them if you see anything suspicious.

3. Call 9-1-1 to report suspicious activity or if you believe there is an emergency.

4. Help keep your yard and block well maintained and free of trash.

5. Set timers when you’re away from your house.

If you’d like to be more involved, you’re welcome to join your neighbors by:

1. Placing a Highlawn Neighborhood Watch sign in your yard.

2. Attending the safe neighborhood workshops.

3. Taking the long way home (drive through the neighborhood as you come and go, and report any suspicious activity).

4. Attending Neighborhood Watch meetings.

5. Volunteering to be a block captain.

Meeting Information

Neighborhood Watch meetings are held the first and third Saturday of every month, at St. Mary's Heart Institute, Room 205, located on 3rd Ave, between 27th and 28th Streets, at 10:30 am.
