Green Bay Police Department Citizen Confidence Survey
Executive Summary
In 2011, the Green Bay Police Department distributed surveys throughout the Green Bay area.
The intent of these surveys was to determine citizens perceptions of safety, as well as their
beliefs about perceived problems. In total, 1,238 responses were collected using a variety of
methods. This report serves as a summary of the information that was collected.

Data Sets
A number of different methods were undertaken to obtain the data used in the summary. Because
of this, four different data sets were compiled. These are detailed below. The majority of the
information provided in this report was determined using the combined data set. While this did
yield a number of significant results, a number of analyses were performed solely on the data
derived from the mailed surveys only. It will be noted which data set was used in each of the
sections of this report.
Mailed Surveys
Surveys were mailed to randomly selected households throughout the Green Bay area. These
surveys represent the most scientific method of data collection, and yielded 341 responses.
Online Collection
A digital version of the survey was made accessible to be filled out online. This method yielded
141 responses.
Spanish Language
In addition, a Spanish language version of the survey was made available for individuals whose
primary language was Spanish. This method yielded 33 responses.
High School Students
A cohort of high school students was asked to complete the online version of the survey. This
method yielded 723 responses.
Combined Data Set
For the purposes of completing the executive summary, a combined data set was obtained by
aggregating the aforementioned responses. Much of the information provided in this summary
reflects an analysis of the combined 1,238 responses.

Contact Ratings by EthnicityCombined Data Set
Respondents were asked to rate their most recent contact with the Green Bay Police Department.
The 10 items assessed regarding contact are listed below.
1. Professional2. Respectful3. Polite/Courteous4. Helpful5. Gave Advice6. Concerned with Situation7. Answered My Questions8. Appearance9. Impartial Treatment10.Timeliness
The ten ratings were summed together for each respondent. The summed ratings were then
averaged by ethnicity to form an overall contact-rating index, with a score of 1 representing very
poor, and a score of 5 representing very good. The scores were then compared, with mean
rankings by ethnicity as follows:

Additional Items Regarding Prior ContactCombined Data Set
In addition to comparing ratings of police contact across the different ethnic groups, the
influence of prior contact on willingness to report a crime, as well as perceptions of safety, was
examined.
Willingness to Report a Crime
A correlation analysis was run to determine the relationship between respondents ratings of
prior contact with the Police Department and their willingness to report a crime. Overall, a strong
relationship was found between the two. Specifically, more positive ratings of police contact
were associated with increased willingness to report a crime.
Perception of Safety
A correlation analysis was run to determine the relationship between respondents ratings of
prior contact with the Police Department and their perceptions of safety. Upon analysis, it was
found that several different facets of the contact ratings were related to increased perceptions ofsafety. These items are listed below.
1. Professionalism*2. Helpfulness3. Giving Advice4. Showing concern with the situation*5. Providing adequate answers to citizens questions6. Impartial treatment7. Timeliness**Indicates an exceptionally strong relationship with safety
The relationship between the aforementioned items and perceptions of safety is such that, as
higher ratings of performance were achieved, overall perceptions of safety increased.

Demographics Regarding Not Reporting CrimesCombined Data Set
Respondents were asked to rate their willingness to report being the victim of a crime, with a
rating of 1 being not willing, and a rating of 5 being very willing. These ratings were then
compared with demographic data, such as age, gender, ethnicity, and income.
Age
The data suggest that an individual is more likely to report a crime as they get older, with a slight
decrease in willingness following the 45-54 age range. In addition, the lowest mean score of
willingness was 4.12, suggesting that the majority of people who took the survey are willing to
report being the victim of a crime to the police.

Gender
While the difference between gender ratings of willingness was significant, it was relatively
miniscule, suggesting that men and women are similarly likely to report a crime if victimized.
1 = Not Willing; 5 = Very Willing
Ethnicity
Among the different ethnic groups represented in the survey, White/Caucasian individuals
responded as being most willing to report a crime if victimized. Hispanic individuals reported a
near similar level of willingness, with American Indian and Asian-American/Pacific Islander
individuals not far behind. Black/African-American individuals reported the lowest willingness
to report a crime, which was almost one point lower than the mean rating by White/Caucasian
individuals.

Income
Willingness to report a crime generally increased along with income, yet appears to drop off
relatively significantly into the $100,000 income range.
1 = Not Willing; 5 = Very Willing
Additional Considerations
A regression analysis was performed to determine which, if any, of the preceding factors
emerged as a significant predictor of reporting a crime. The results suggest that age alone is a
predictor of ones willingness to report a crime. The relationship between age and willingness
was found to be slightly correlated, suggesting that as age increases ones willing to report a
crime also increases.

Demographics Regarding Not Reporting CrimeMailed Survey Data Set
In order to gain a better understanding of willingness to report a crime, an analysis was
conducted using the mailed surveys only. This analysis involved similar comparisons of
willingness across demographic groups that were used in the combined data set.
Age
While the differences in willingness to report a crime across age groups were not found to be
statistically significant, the mean rating of willingness for each age group is provided below. Yet,
similar to the overall data set, respondents reported an overall high willingness to report a crime.
1=Not Willing; 5=Very Willing
Gender
Though statistical significance was not achieved between ratings by each gender, males and
females reported similar levels of willingness.

Income
Contrary to the results obtained in the combined data set, willingness to report a crime
consistently increased as income increased. Yet, the differences between the reported income
groups were not found to be significant.
1=Not Willing; 5=Very Willing
Additional Considerations
Using the data obtained from the mailed surveys, a regression analysis was performed to
determine if any of the preceding factors was a significant predictor of willingness to report a
crime. Among this particular data set, only income emerged as a significant predictor of
willingness. The relationship between income and willingness was found to be strongly
correlated, such that respondents willingness to report crime increased as their income
increased.

Demographics Regarding Prior VictimizationCombined Data Set
Insight into victimization was obtained through an item that asked respondents whether or not
they had previously been the victim of a crime and not reported it. A chi-square analysis was run
to determine which demographic factors were related to this item.
Ethnicity
Ethnicity was found to be significantly related to having been a victim of a crime and not
reporting it. The list below indicates the percentage rate of not reporting victimization when
compared to the number of respondents from that category (N).
1. American Indian38.71% (N=43)2. Black/African American54.17% (N=37)3. White/Caucasian13.61% (N=818)4. Hispanic/Puerto Rican16.47% (N=99)5. Asian American/Pacific Islander8.88% (N=79)
Gender
Gender was also found to be significantly related to reporting victimization. Specifically, a
strong difference was found between the percentages of males and females who had not reported
their incidents of victimization.
1. Males12.61% (N=500)2. Females17.92% (N=566)
Age & Income
Upon analysis, it was found that neither income nor age was significantly related to reporting
prior victimization.

Demographics Regarding Perceptions of SafetyCombined Data Set
Safety was rated across three different levels, including home, neighborhood, and Green Bay.
Comparisons of safety ratings were made across a number of demographic categories.
Age
A consistent decreasing trend was found when comparing safety ratings within each age group,
such that perceptions of safety decreased over the home, neighborhood, and Green Bay levels of
assessment.
1 = Very Unsafe; 5 = Very Safe
Gender
A similar decreasing trend regarding safety was noted when comparing safety ratings by gender.Furthermore, a statistically significant difference was found between gender groups, such that
males consistently felt more safe at all three levels of assessment when compared with females.

Income
Consistent with prior findings, ratings of safety within income groups consistently decreased
across all three levels of assessment.
1 = Very Unsafe; 5 = Very Safe
Further insight into perceived safety in regards to income level was found by determining the
correlation between them. Upon further analysis, income and perceived safety were found to be
strongly correlated, such that respondents perceived level of safety increased as respondents
income increased. In addition, a regression analysis confirmed that income serves as a significant
predictor of safety among the surveyed population.

Prior Victimization
Although prior victimization was not included in the demographics assessment, a regression
analysis revealed that having been the victim of a crime serves as a significant predictor of
safety. To better understand this relationship, an overall rating of safety was determined using
the same method described in the section regarding ethnicity and safety. Individuals reporting
prior victimization perceived a lower overall level of safety when compared with non-victimized
individuals.

Additional Items Regarding Perceptions of SafetyCombined Data Set
Another set of items in the survey assessed how individuals perceive certain problems. Using the
combined data sets, a chi square analysis was performed to compare how respondents perceived
certain problems with their perceived level of safety. The following items were found to be
significantly related to ratings of safety across all three levels of assessment (e.g., Home,
Neighborhood, and Green Bay).
1. Armed Hold-Ups2. Assaults3. Business Break-Ins4. Disorderly Behavior*5. Gangs*6. Graffiti*7. Littering8. Loitering9. Noisy Parties10.Poorly Maintained Properties11.School Violence12.Sexual Assault13.Thefts of Cars14.Thefts from Cars15.Traffic Offenses*16.Vandalism*17.Weapons Offenses**Indicates an exceptionally strong relationship with safety
A correlation analysis was used to determine the nature of the relationship between these items
and perceived safety. All items listed were found to be significantly correlated with ratings of
safety, such that overall ratings of safety decreased as the aforementioned items were
increasingly viewed as problematic.

Cooperation between the Police and the PublicMailed Survey Data Set
One of the items in the survey asked respondents whether or not they believed that the Police and
the public have a shared responsibility in creating a safe community. Respondents were able to
rate how much they believed this responsibility was shared using a five-point scale, such that 1 =
Strongly Disagree, and 5 = Strongly Agree. Overall, it was found that 94% (N=333) of
respondents either agreed or strongly agreed that the Police and the public share responsibility in
maintaining public safety. The specific breakdown of ratings is provided below.
1. Strongly Disagreen/a (N=0)*2. Disagree1% (N=2)*3. Neutral5% (N=18)*4. Agree38% (N=128)*5. Strongly Agree56% (N=185)**The total number of respondents for this item was 333.

Citizen Satisfaction Regarding PerformanceCombined Data Set
Performance Ratings
Respondents were asked to disclose whether or not they had any prior contact with the Police
Department, as well as whom the contact was with. Furthermore, assessments of performance
were rated using the ten criteria listed.
1. Professional2. Respectful3. Polite/Courteous4. Helpful5. Gave Advice6. Concerned with Situation7. Answered My Questions8. Appearance9. Impartial Treatment10.Timeliness
In order to form an individual performance assessment, performance ratings were compared with
the type of individual respondents reported contact with. An overall performance score was
determined by averaging all of the performance ratings given to a particular contact. The average
performance ratings are provided in the graph below.

Performance as it Relates to Reporting Crime
Results suggest that ratings of performance are a major determinant of willingness to report a
crime. This was determined by performing a correlation analysis comparing respondents
willingness to report a crime with perceptions of police performance. An exceptionally strong
relationship was found between the two, such that the more positively a respondent rated police
performance, the more willing he or she was to report a crime. This relationship was found to be
consistent across all dimensions of performance.
Performance and Problem Perception
A comparison was made between how individuals perceive police performance and how
individuals perceive specific problems in their area. Upon analysis, a number of significant
correlations were found. For the purposes of this report, only the significant relationships will be
listed.
Effective enforcement of general traffic laws was associated with a decreased perceptionof traffic offenses and littering. Positive performance regarding neighborhood problems and quality of life issues was
associated with decreased perception of littering.
Positive performance regarding foot and bicycle patrol was associated with decreasedperceptions of littering.
Providing effective protection of personal property was associated with decreasedperceptions of littering.
Effectively reducing gang activity and graffiti was associated with decreased perceptionsof disorderly conduct and littering.
Effective reduction of minor crimes was strongly associated with decreased perceptionsof littering.
Effective reduction of serious crimes was strongly associated with decreased perceptionsof disorderly conduct, drunk driving, and littering.
Effective reduction of violence in and around local bars was strongly associated withdecreased perceptions of disorderly behavior, drug abuse, family violence, littering, and
sexual assault.
Finally, effective reduction of public intoxication was strongly associated with decreasedperceptions of alcohol abuse, disorderly behavior, drunk driving, and littering.

Citizen Satisfaction Relating to GeographyMailed Survey Data Set
Respondents from the population of mailed surveys were subsequently matched with their
Community Policing [CP] area. Specifically, eight different CP areas were recorded. A
comparison of the perceived problems within each CP area was conducted, and a number of
significant results were found. It should be noted, however, that the representation of each CP
area was disproportionate overall. Thus, despite achieving statistical significance, the results of
the comparisons should be interpreted cautiously. For reference, the CP areas, as well as their
corresponding number of respondents, are listed.
CP Areas & Number of Respondents
1. Far East792. Far West813. Fort Howard434. Imperial315. Lombardi656. Navarino207. Olde North168. Tank3
Perceived Problems across CP Areas
In regards to perceptions of problems, the rating scenario used described a rating of 1 as no
problem, 2 as a minor problem, and 3 as a serious problem. Upon analysis, a number of
significant differences in ratings emerged across CP areas. Specifically, citizen perceptions of
armed hold-ups, gang activity, graffiti, business break-ins, and drug abuse varied significantly.
Furthermore, a general trend emerged in which all of the aforementioned concerns were
consistently higher in the Imperial, Olde North, and Tank CP areas. Yet, attention must be paid
to the relatively small number of respondents representing the perceptions of each of these areas.
Nevertheless, perceptions of each problem across CP areas are represented graphically on the
following pages.

Perceived Performance across CP Areas
Ratings of performance regarding various activities were assessed using a 5-point Likert scale,
with a score of 1 representing very poor performance, and a score of 5 representing very good
performance. When comparing these ratings across the different CP areas, a number of
significant relationships were found regarding perceptions of police effectiveness. Specifically,
differences were noted among the perceived effectiveness of enforcing general traffic laws,
resolving neighborhood and quality of life issues, and reducing gang activity, violence in and
around bars, and public intoxication.
Perceptions of police performance were consistently high within the Far West and Tank CP
areas. Overall perception of police performance across CP areas was generally positive, with the
majority of the scores being in the good to very good range. The relationship between
performance ratings and CP area is represented graphically on the following pages.
