Safety is a key aspect of community wellbeing.  A safe community takes active steps to prevent crime and provide an environment where residents feel they can participate fully.  A public survey undertaken in 2003 identified that 'a safe and caring community' is by far the most important community outcome for Rotorua residents over the coming ten year period.
