What is the track record of cities that have experimented with POP and COP?

What will be an ideal response?


Overall, the track records of Problem Oriented Police (POP) and Community Oriented Police (COP) have shown a positive effect on citizens as documented by empirical evidence from many cities over many decades. The success story of these modern approaches to policing is when departments kept these approaches as departmental policy even when the federal funding ran out. These approaches focused on real problem-solving for concerned citizens and provide a positive input from concerned citizens into the police crime planning and analysis process. These approaches focused police on citizen concerns and increased information to and from citizens. It also enhanced citizen morale and support for their police department. POP and COP had more effect on citizens and their concerns than with a reduction in crime.
