Community Assessment Surveys

Every two years, since 1994, the City of Portland has undertaken benchmark research to evaluate the community's perception of the work performed by the Portland Police Bureau. In addition to traditional crime statistics, the Portland Police Bureau, in conjunction with third-party researchers, have tracked citizens' concerns regarding crime in their community, their level of involvement in public safety issues, and their attitudes toward the police.

These reports describe the findings of the community assessment by the Portland Police Bureau:
