In a 2003 survey, the average response time was 4 minutes 15 seconds. The median (mid-point value) was 3 minutes 39 seconds. Call response time depends on the number and type of ongoing emergency situations, call activity volume and the number of officers available. MVPD takes pride in responding as soon as possible to any and all citizen calls for assistance.
