How often do you see a Police Officer where you live?

Hi

Many complain about never seeing one.

I must say thank you to the new next but one neighbour.

Since their arrival we have seen a remarkable increase in Police Presence.

Daily visits my two officers, 5 drive pasts so far today.

Criminality is much reduced locally because of this.

Only when the druggies up the road smash a shop window in the summer months. The police arrive, tell them they are very naughty, then bugger off. We do occasionally get a police car do the rounds during the day but never at night when the boy racers use the town one way system as a race track.

Oh they float around when they have nothing better to do, but when you actually need one? Nope.

They'd be around more often if I told 'em you live there.

Almost never see one round here, not unless there is an accident or something like that.

Luckily it is quite a nice quiet area I bought in.
I don't want hassle as I get older thanks.

There are usually quite a few in the town centre but out here in the sticks none at all.

We moved house two years ago. I have not seen any police visits here. Maybe we just got lucky. In my previous house I saw saw a couple around one of the clumps of trees looking for illegal dirt bikes. Once in 12 years that is.
