Little Thicket Park (1831 W 23rd St. Houston TX 77008) sees significant drug use and drug transactions that vary from IV drugs/users, to high school kids smoking/selling weed DAILY. These visitors smash bottles, litter trash everywhere and vandalize the park facilities. These are all clearly violations of the City Park rules. Their behavior makes it difficult for law abiding visitors to feel safe and/or enjoy the park.

I agree with Tor. Everything they say is true. All the people who actually live in the area and pay taxes see this all the time. Drugs, trash, homeless people camped out in the woods, drug deals. This park is on a dead end street, not well lit, and makes for a perfect place for these things to happen; making it not a very pleasant park for people who live in the area. These issues have been reported to the city many times.

Neighbors, I need help. Whenever we walk the dogs or takes the kids to play, we clean up all the cigaro wrappers used to smoke more potent stuff, and whatever other trash is left by undesirables. Sometimes I feel like I am the only one, which is fine by me, I will not give up on this little treasure near my home. I will continue to call after dark on anyone staying in the park that clearly states dawn to dusk hours only and paint over any graffiti I see.

I agree with Raul; if the city doesn't help us, we help ourselves. Let's not wait for the city any longer and come together and do little things that will help the community for the better and for the long-term. Slowly, but surely, it will become better; but we have to be consistent. Report any criminal activity right away to HPD, not here. If everyone does a little as individuals, you could imagine what we could do as a whole community!! (sorry for the cheesiness =)

Aside from the usual daily pile of weed para (attached image) as associated take out food litter/alcohol we have been recently finding uncapped used needles in the parking area on W 23rd St. USE CAUTION
