Crime Prevention Research Review No. 7: Police Programs to Prevent Crime in Hot Spot Areas
The seventh publication in the Crime Prevention Research Review series, Police Programs to Prevent Crime in Hot Spots Areas provides a review of the findings from all rigorous academic studies evaluating these types of police programs. This review builds upon the information originally presented in the second publication in this series, Police Enforcement Strategies to Prevent Crime in Hot Spot Areas, and finds that focusing efforts on places with high crime and calls for service can effectively prevent crime in those locations. Reduced calls for service and other reductions in crime and disorder measures were noted in most studies. Displacement of crime due to the enforcement efforts was not prevalent in those studies that measured displacement. Hot spots policing programs were more likely to produce a diffusion of crime control benefits into areas immediately surrounding targeted hot spot areas.Categories: Data and Analysis • Police OperationsLanguage: EnglishPublic link
