With the implementation of the newly reformed and reorganized or upgraded barangay patrol, one can refer to the 2008 crime index of the barangay in assessing success or failure.

In comparison to the year 2007, there is a small decrease in the total index crimes of the year 2008 excluding the months of November and December. There are certain non-index crimes that weren’t reported in the year 2008 as compared to a high number of cases in 2007, namely reports of Estafa, and violations of R.A. 7610.
