I'm a little surprised there is no mention here of Irvington's extraordinarily high crime rate.-Dmz5*Edits**Talk* 23:18, 16 January 2007 (UTC)Reply

I noticed the article mentions when Camptown became the Village of Irvington in 1874 and the Town of Irvington in 1898, but there's no mention of the change to Township of Irvington in 1984. -HankW512 (talk) 19:36, 8 February 2013 (UTC)Reply
