How to rebuild community trust after neighborhood tensions arise

Our neighborhood used to be really close-knit but over the past few years people have become more withdrawn and suspicious of each other, especially after some break-ins happened. A few of us want to try to rebuild community but others seem to prefer keeping to themselves, and we're not sure how to bridge that gap without being pushy.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen
