Drug dealing should be a #1 priority. Many other crimes can be traced to drug crimes that major enforcement there can easily reduce other crimes. For example, we have had several bank robberies in the last year caused by people needing money for drugs as well as a few shootings that have all been drug related. Our local police departments have had 2 major drug raids taking out important dealers thanks to community groups and crime watches keeping up the pressure and pointing the police in the right direction. Without community effort, your powerless.

Three things: 1) drugs, (2) drugs, and (3) drugs
I think the Chief of Police and all law enforcement in the area where I live are working on it with everything they've got but we've had more drug related killings this year than any previous year I can remember.
The drug problem is the great evil of today and from it stem most other types of crime: muggings, strong-armed violence, prostitution, etc. It ruins so many lives and is an epidemic spiralling out of control in our schools. And it's not just a city thing. It's everywhere.

Well, fortunately we have very little violent crime... drugs are underground... and I can NEVER find a prostitute...
What I want to see them do is traffic enforcement !! I'm in the San Francisco Bay area, and I'm sick of people on their cell-phone causing fender-benders
Spend a week each month enforcing traffic laws like FIENDS !! Seat-belts, Red light runners, speeders, illegal turns, failure to yield...
I'm a pedestrian 90% of the time, and have been hit/nudged 12 times by drivers in the crosswalk.
How... well, budgets are tight... recruit a few of the retired folk to note license plates... and FINE FINE FINE the offenders !!

Police budgets and size of the force are voted on by the citizens. So if you have a higher Crime Rate you vote in more Police to help control it. I cannot believe your comment about Bored Police creating More Crime? You must be very young or uneducated to believe that BS.

People driving around with kids just stuck in the back seat, usually not sitting, but none the less without any kind of safety restraint what so ever.
I can forgive people for not putting their own safety belt on but not that of a child's. Children can't save themselves they aren't smart enough yet.

Filtering out all of the corrupt cops. Too many of them on every police force.

Underage drinking. Not much goes on here, so that's all I could think of cause it's a real problem. I know they're working on it but I don't know how hard.
