| Neighborhood Description: | Arbor Hills is a beautiful tract of land that overlooks the City of Madison from the southwest side. Its residents are primarily single-family homeowners who take pride in their neighborhood and actively participate in their neighborhood association. Accordingly, the association is the custodian of the community's ideals, of its permanent expectations, of the cohesion that forges a neighborhood out of a mere aggregation of residents. An Executive Board and thirty-nine Block Captains govern the organization. |

| Neighborhood Statistics Indicators: | The Neighborhood Indicators Project is a demonstration of key characteristics and various indicators that relate to the quality of life in Madison at the neighborhood level. Basic neighborhood information as well as housing, public safety, health and family well-being, economic, and transportation indicators by neighborhood is available. |
| Recent Accomplishments: | -Received Neighborhood Planning Grant ($5,000) for design/installation of neighborhood sign (2009). -Extensive block captain system provides involvement of neighbors at the block level.
