Local considerations
Investigative considerations in Lakeview Estates.
Dense neighborhoods and multi-unit buildings

Major routes through the area
Interstate 20 and U.S. Route 278 run through or near Lakeview Estates. Highway access means a routine can take someone well outside town in minutes. Mobile surveillance is staffed and timed with that in mind, and locate work follows the same corridors.
Long commutes and out-of-town routines
