Like I said in another thread - while in Chicago there were police cruisers and officers located every couple blocks. Where the streets are wide the cruisers sit in the medians. They were even on Michigan Ave. There were always police around and as mentioned it always felt safe.
We seem to have trouble keeping beat officers from disappearing after a while. If it can work in downtown Chicago, why can't it work here.
