Managed by the Japantown Community Benefit District (JCBD), our 24/7 security cameras help keep Japantown safe. Strategic camera placement—in partnership with local property owners and law enforcement—has already led to a major drop in auto break-ins.

As part of the broader SafeCity Connect network, Japantown’s cameras share real-time security resources with neighboring districts to speed up incident response and protect the wider community.

Benefits to the Japantown Community:
• Urban Safety & Security
• Economic Development
• Stakeholder Collaboration (Community Groups, Key Property Owners, Law Enforcement)
• Detterence & Prevention
• Innovation in Fighting Crime
• Integration/Connectivity
