Cops living on Staten Island can be assigned to commands that cover their home addresses.If NYPD cops in general don't live in the city they police, they have no stake in the neighborhoods to which they are assigned, and therefore, no real incentive to care for those areas in a meaningful way. I worked in the 75 in the late '80s, my COR was Pitkin and Momma Gaston. I saw what happens when both the cops and the neighborhood were out of control. If more cops had to come home to city neighborhoods after their tour, they'd be more invested in the condition of the community. |
