Results: 
At two years post implementation, the treatment area reported crime reductions in all but one category: aggravated assault. The treatment area reported a reduction in burglary, larceny, auto theft and the total. Over the two year period they also showed a drop in rape and robbery. The city also reported an overall reduction in reported crimes, however, there were significant differences in the amount of reduction, and once again the percentage of auto thefts rose for the city.
