They had a group for this when I was living in Hoofddorp. From memory they called it "Buurtpreventie" which I suppose translates into "Neighbourhood Watch" really. It's just a new evolution of what has existed for ages. It allows faster communication rather than Jan calling Sanne who calls Peter to inform that someone isn't taking their bins out on the correct day.

Technically it means "prevention of neighbourhood" which is obviously kind of silly.
