COMMUNITY

We want to hear from you!

Please take our short community survey! We are always looking for input from community members to help develop solutions to improve Bound Brook and South Bound Brook.

​

Survey results from the Hispanic Health Fair in November 2022 found the following:

  • Residents pointed out local strengths and assets, which included community services, sense of community, churches, and safe recreational spaces.

  • When asked about their dream for what we could improve, the most common answer was to hold more community events. This was also mentioned as a way to improve diversity, equity, and inclusion for all community members.

  • Resident concerns included access to medical care and illegal drug use. They felt that it would be helpful to have more communication about available resources, although most had not visited our online resource guide.
