Beverly Hills/Morgan Park is one of Chicago’s safest neighborhoods. BAPA, local organizations and citizens work side-by-side with the Chicago Police Department 22nd District to address crime concerns and promote crime prevention.
BAPA actively supports the 22nd District Police, maintaining a strong working relationship with local police and an important line of communication that helps make our community’s response more expedient and effective if crimes do occur.
