At 900 N Curry Pike, behind our Fire Station there is a homeless camp that is by the railroad tracks. The people living there are causing issues such as drug use, leaving dirty needles laying around, trash all over, and stealing from residence at the park. The Fire Station does not have cameras which they need. They need some kind of security due to these people being right behind them. Someone needs to look into this issue ASAP.
What is going on with catlytic convertors being stolen in this town? Two were just stolen in my neighborhood. Seems like this shouldn't be a problem in a small college town. Have you all investigated the places in town where these could be being sold on a black market?
Street racing just occurred on E Morningside Drive. Did over the weekend too with motorcycles. Please put a stop to the dangerous idiots who do this in a residential neighborhood.
My neighbors at 279 E Varsity Ln play music that is so loud it shakes the wall of our apartment. It goes on for all hours of the day and we have asked them and the property managers to put a stop to it and nothing has been done. There is also a very strong distinct odor of marijuana coming from their apartment that is rather bothersome because we can smell it in our apartment.
There is a group of homeless people set up with a whole camp behind the health department. It is becoming an issue.
Several neighbors, and myself, have been victims of actions done by the unhoused. Just last night (1-5-24), our car was broken into for the second time in less than a year. This time, we saw the person before anything was taken. This area needs help. While we are all understanding of the needs of the unhoused, we in this neighborhood, have a right to feel safe for our families. In less than a year, this area has had vehicle break ins, home invasions, confrontation about blocking front doors, and theft. Please help all Bloomington residents, not just the unhoused.
Our new neighbors at the corner of Stephens and Etter Dr. in Eastern Heights addition, appear to be operating an enterprise that operates primarily at night, with people arriving in cars for stays of a few minutes, often leaving their cars running in the street while disappearing into the garage, and returning with small and large packages. These are a wide range of varied vehicles, never the same, coming and going until 4am sometimes. This is a normally very quiet and subdued neighborhood with a nice mix of owner owned homes and rentals, and a variation of students and retirees and children. The appearance of this corner venture is unsettling and disruptive of neighborhood life-and I am unaware of any legal venture that operates in this fashion. It would be good if a Bloomington Police car could make occasional trips by this house and through Eastern Heights for a while. Perhaps they will be able to figure out what is going on, or at least discourage what appears to be a common nuisance. Thank You.

This car littered 2 plastic water bottles outside their window on IU campus.
There is been a constant flow of drug deals between people who park at Timber Ridge Apartments and go to Crawford Apartments. They are leaving their used syringes in the parking lot, and passing out in their vehicles. Space is very limited and we need the parking spaces for the residents. Who do we contact to clean the syringes up? There are young kids who live here who like to play outside. Police have been called numerous times for the people passed out in their cars. Timber Ridge parking should be for residents and guest only! We need more signs that say such!! Or patrol the area please!!
