History
Historically, the area was first developed by Frank Crisp who obtained title in a back-taxes sale, following the Great Depression which started in 1929. George Davis teamed up with Frank Crisp to build and sell houses. Other contractor/builders such as Harold White, Conrad Banspach, Oscar Tessier, Charlie Cheezum and Di'Andrea filled the vacant lots. Claude Greene and Bob Crisp, nephews of Frank Crisp, also helped finish off the area for their uncle.

Organizations/programs
In addition to the neighborhood association, there are several active Crime Watch groups in the area. Citizens believe in looking after their neighbors and their property.
