Hey Neighbor Campaign
The Hey Neighbor colorful note cards pictured above, uses a creative, friendly, though- provoking way to encourage neighbors to communicate, with one another in a non-threatening manner.  The unique cards give neighbors a way to say, “Thanks for being a good neighbor,” to the person down the block who has always maintained his or her property.  The cards offer a variety of positive ways to compliment a neighbor.  The cards also offer direct and, often humorous suggestion encouraging a neighbor to water the lawn, or turn down the music, or finish the remodeling project.

Hey Neighbor Campaign

The Southeastern Economic Development Corporation (SEDC) approach to redevelopment is both traditional redevelopment that assembles land, develops new housing, employment opportunities, and provides infrastructure improvements, on the one hand, and economic development that builds small businesses, strengthens neighborhoods and challenges residents to contribute to the development of their communities, on the other.  While traditional redevelopment does the heavy lifting, SEDC had always sought to provide ways in which the community residents can participate in the transformation of their neighborhoods.  That is what Hey Neighbor is all about.

While Hey Neighbor is not code enforcement or a community policing program, both the City of San Diego’s Code Enforcement administrators and the Chief of Police have endorsed Hey Neighbor as a positive way to get neighbors talking.  The Hey Neighbor card provides neighbors with a chance to elevate their own community values without threats from the government and police. 

The subtle and sophisticated communication cards are free and available in various locations around the city.  You can also pick up some at the SEDC Corporate office.
