Security
Neighbourhood Watch (Vecinos Cooperado) Altea, is linked to the National
Scheme. It regularly issues security advise, and notifies residents of crime
problems.
You can find out more about Neighbourhood Watch here.
Over the past few years, the
levels of crime in the
Sierra have risen, in line
with National trends. In
2007, the Asociación, in
collaboration with our
neighbouring Associations,
started to explore the
introduction of a
Neighbourhood Watch
scheme.
This initiative was supported
by the Ayuntamiento, the
Policia Local and the
Guardia Civil. A scheme
covering Sierra Altea 1 and
Sierra Altea Golf, started
in November 2008.
This was followed by
Urbanization
Paradiso, whose
scheme went live in
January 2009.
Urlisa1 & 2, Las
Mimosas, and Altea
Sierra 2, have now
been incorporated
into the scheme.
Over the past two
years, Security
Cameras have been
installed, and liason
with the Police and
Guardia Civil has
improved
considerably.
