I agree with those that have some concern and reluctance to spend evenings in Brownwood. It may be just perception or true but i don't feel the same security comfort as I do at Lake Sumter or Spanish Springs. How this can be fixed is a real challenge. Maybe more police patrols, more lighting, more outdoor actions (e.g. more Resturants that seat outside,etc.). The closeness of Wildwood to the squares (not meant to disrespect Wildwood)
but when you have larger centralized populations you will naturally have more good and "bad" things. Reading the weekly crime rates does not add to the good security feelings when Wildwood cases are mentioned.
