The Impact of Community Policing in Four Houston Neighborhoods

David A. Kessler

Kent State University

Sheila Duncan

Houston Police Department

This research examined the impact of community-policing programs on calls for service, Part 1 crime, total crime, and narcotics cases infour Houston neighborhoods. The methodology used time-senes analysis and examined lagged and dynamic effects. The analysis produced mixed results, indicating that the community-policing programs had no significant impact on neighborhood crime. Police departments need to continue rigorous assessment of their efforts to accumulate knowledge about which community-policing practices are effective and which ones are not.
