The availability of job opportunities is a pivotal factor influencing unemployment and underemployment rates. Communities where individuals contend with limited employment prospects or a preponderance of low-wage positions may witness elevated rates of joblessness and income inadequacy, which can contribute to heightened crime levels driven by financial insecurity.

In Frisco, the cost of living is 38.79% higher than the national average. A high cost of living can induce economic stress for locals, especially those with limited financial resources.

Conversely, cities boasting a lower cost of living may mitigate economic pressures and potentially result in reduced crime rates.

Effective law enforcement leans heavily on community policing strategies that prioritize the cultivation of trust and cooperation between police and residents. It's essential to recognize that the effectiveness of these efforts isn't solely tied to the quantity of officers but also hinges on the quality of their engagement with the community.
