In reality, not much. Some of the "normal" services a city provides, such as fire protection, city water, sewer, parks, streetlights, green spaces, etc are not provided by Wildwood. They do provide police protection and street maintenance, though. However, I have not seen any Wildwood Police cars patrolling the neighborhoods, nor have I seen a Wildwood street sweeper. In all fairness, Wildwood does not officially take over street maintenance until the new streets are turned over to them by the District.
