Devonshire Area experienced a decrease in crime during 2005. Total Violent Crime was reduced 28%, Total Property Crime was reduced 13%, and Total Part 1 Crime was reduced 15%. By setting clear goals and implementing new and proven strategies, Devonshire Commanding Officers are confident the below listed goals can be met or exceeded.
