" Check through my blog posts. You will see several posts concerning Coatesville as a drug depot for Chester County. There are two basic reasons for this:
- We have a population of several thousand people here that are easy to intimidate. That is the families that have lived here for 100 years of more. Criminals can know every immediate family member and every extended family member, just like in Sicily.
- The same transportation links that make Coatesville an ideal place for commerce between the City of Lancaster and the City of Philadelphia make it easy to bring drugs in to Coatesville and distribute "packages" to the surrounding area.
Just the revitalization of Coatesville's shopping area can make the downtown safer by putting more people on the streets, more "eyes on the street”.
Bringing new residents to Coatesville, people not born and raised in Coatesville and therefore not easily intimidated, can put "eyes on the street" that aren't easily intimidated. New "eyes on the street" can counteract the phenomena of, "A murder happening in front of eight people and no one saw it." Joe Carroll"
