Title: Retail Policing: Analysis of Dispatches to Walmart, the most frequent Location of Calls for Police Services in Rochester

Summary: This paper will examine calls for service made to the Monroe County 911 Center from the Walmart located at 1490 Hudson Avenue in Rochester, New York. In 2010 this was the leading location for calls for police services in Rochester. This research grew out of an interest in considering high volume locations for calls for service and was further encouraged in discussions during the Center for Public Safety Initiative’s work with the local Rochester community organization, Group 14621. Citizens in the 14621 community felt that the nearby Walmart, located on the northern boundary of the 14621 area, was a common location for police calls for service and were interested in how this may affect policing services in the neighborhood. Excluding police sub-station locations, the Hudson Avenue Walmart was the most common location for Rochester calls for service in 2010. The Hudson Avenue Walmart recorded twice as many calls as the next highest location. Even with that volume, this accounted for .25% of the total of 460,448 Rochester related calls for service received in 2010. The goals of this research will be to describe the nature of calls for service and the response to them at the Hudson Avenue Walmart.
