Location Summary:
Most problems — whether traffic, noise, suspicious activity, or other calls — tend to cluster around the main roads (especially Seward Hwy. and its intersections), the central/downtown cross streets (Third, Fourth, Van Buren, Port), the campgrounds, and a handful of residential blocks. These are likely the busiest or most populated parts of town, which explains why they see more activity and police responses.
