Anti-Prostitution Activities in Seminole Heights - Part 2

This is a continuation of Anti-Prostitution Activities in Seminole Heights - Part 1

Next is 2003 - again Seminole Heights has the most arrests for prostitution.



Next is 2004- we see the beginning of a trend, with North Tampa (just South of Fowler) having the highest grid amount.




Finally 2005. For the first time, Seminole Heights has a minor amount of arrests. The activity has shifted north to Sulphur Springs and North Tampa (just south of Fowler). Seminole Heights is no longer the hotbed of prostitution. I suspect most of the arrests in Seminole Heights are stings by undercover cops arresting Johns.

What I can't get are hard data on arrests in the county but I suspect you would find that the county areas of Nebraska north of Fowler to Bearss, and Hillsborough east of 47th Street would have increased over the years. This is based on observations by residents and police and from HCSO online arrest reports.

Why has this dropped? This will be explored in the next post - but basically due to the organized efforts of the Seminole Heights residents.
