Im concerned about safety. Does a small city like Oakwood have the resources to provide effective police, fire, and emergency medical services?
Oakwood is one of the safest communities in Ohio…and the country, thanks to the maximized resources of a fully cross-trained Public Safety Department. All the city’s sworn officers are certified in law enforcement, fire fighting, and emergency medical services, and Oakwood’s state-of-the-art, independent public safety dispatch system assures rapid and extremely accurate response. These factors keep Oakwood emergency response times lightning fast, averaging several minutes under the national standards. Oakwood crime rates are among the lowest in the state, and a combination of strict traffic enforcement and citizen cooperation in crime prevention help keep Oakwood’s walkable streets very safe.
