| Crime Watch / VIP |
|
Lochwood Neighborhood was one of the very first neighborhoods in Dallas to join the Volunteers In Patrol (VIP) program years ago and we saw a nearly 30% reduction in crime the first year, and 20%+ in year two.
VIP is the community crime watch program composed of your neighbors who patrol the area on the lookout for suspicious activity. We are trained by the Dallas police, patrol in pairs in our own vehicles, and call 911 if action is warranted.
Lochwood currently has approximately 60 neighbors that volunteer for VIP and they account for 130+ hours of monthly patrols. Ideally, we need to double the number of volunteers to increase the monthly hours patrolled and cover even more hours which helps reduce even more crime in our neighborhood. Please sign up to participate!
While many of us have very busy schedules, it only takes a minimum of 2 hours per month to drive a patrol. Police crime statistics show a very positive correlation between the number of patrols and reduced crime and this has certainly proven true for our neighborhood.
