Crime statistics published by the City of Houston generally cover HPD’s entire 10H80 patrol beat – a much larger area extending approximately from US-59/I-69 south to Brays Bayou and from Kirby Drive east to Main Street. The beat includes Rice University, multiple residential communities, major roadways, businesses, institutions, and other areas well outside our neighborhoods.

By contrast, the reports provided here focus specifically on the much smaller Southampton / Boulevard Oaks Patrol Service area, primarily Boulevard Oaks, Southampton Place, and Southampton Extension. This gives residents a much more localized picture of activity occurring in and immediately around the neighborhoods they call home.

This degree of neighborhood-specific reporting is one of the benefits of subscribing to a paid neighborhood Patrol Service. Rather than relying only on broader HPD beat statistics, subscribers receive a more focused picture of reported incidents, suspicious activity, officer contacts, and patrol activity occurring specifically within the area they help fund.
