[QUOTE="Bestoutwest, post: 1503488, member: 19397"] We have quite a few cops in our area, but it's because we've had a problem in the past. I interact with a bunch of police through work, and I've asked a couple. About 2005 there 100 drive-by shootings in the closest city to me (and where I work). They formed a task force, and it dropped to about 5 the following year and maybe 1 in the 9 years I've been here. There's usually a murder every couple of years. Considering it's a city of about 50,000 full of wanna-be thugs, and some real gang members from California, we do pretty well. I keep my doors locked at home at night, but that's habit from living in the city. Only problem is that response time, and the ability to find us, is pretty bad. I've told my wife that if we have a major issue we're loading up and meeting an ambulance on the way or calling in the bird and dealing with the financial fallout later. [/QUOTE]
