Some context

What’s next

Of the 10 Harris County ZIP codes where crime is most prevalent, five are in the Spring area, according to the HCSO. Lupe Washington, director of the Community Health and Violence Prevention Services division of HCPH, said the county analyzed gun violence

and social vulnerability data to determine where HART and RISE would launch. “These tend to be neighborhoods that have been historically underserved. They may be areas where there are food deserts; transportation may be an issue,” Washington said.

Harris County’s 2022 bond program funded $100 million in public safety facilities, including $7.6 million to open a patrol station for the new HCSO district near Cypress Station Drive. Koteras said the building will feature: • Quarterly safety briefings • Space for community groups to meet

Cases per 100 residents, 2019-24 While ZIP code 77090 has the highest crime rate and lowest median household income locally, ZIP code 77389 has the lowest crime rate and highest median household income. Income and crime rate comparison

• A manned drone patrol tower • Recharge rooms for officers

Leading up to the district’s launch, Koteras said his team is focused on community engagement, including education about crime prevention and resources such as the Crime Stoppers anonymous tipline. “It’s important for [residents] to feel safe so they stay here, they want to live here, they want to work here, they want to invest here,” Harrison said.
