===Statistical evidence=== A 2015 meta-analysis of broken windows policing implementations found that disorder policing strategies, such as "[[crime hotspots|hot spots policing]]" or [[problem-oriented policing]], result in "consistent crime reduction effects across a variety of violent, property, drug, and disorder outcome measures".{{Sfn | Braga et al.| 2015}} As a caveat, the authors noted that "aggressive order maintenance strategies that target individual disorderly behaviors do not generate significant crime reductions," pointing specifically to [[zero tolerance]] policing models that target singular behaviors such as public intoxication and remove disorderly individuals from the street via arrest. The authors recommend that police develop "community co-production" policing strategies instead of merely committing to increasing misdemeanor arrests.{{Sfn | Braga et al.| 2015}}
