Metro officers on Trikke vehicles accompany report showing crime down despite population growth
A Houston Chronicle report on the city’s Midtown area highlights a notable trend: crime in the neighborhood has reportedly dropped 23% since 2019 even as the population has grown roughly 40%.
Accompanying the article is a photo of Houston-area Metro police officers patrolling Midtown on Trikke vehicles, a visible reminder that modern patrol strategies are increasingly focused on mobility, presence, and community engagement in dense urban environments.
Currently, the Houston PD deploys 6 Positron 60V AWD on its force.
