About Us > Office of the Sheriff

The Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department is committed to our mission to protect the community through prevention, partnership and professional service. That commitment and dedication extends to the millions of visitors that Las Vegas plays host to each year. I'm devoted to making what I believe is the best police department in the country even better.

As you browse through our website, you'll notice some interactive features such as crime mapping and sex offender notifications, as well as progressive features such as Twitter and Facebook. These tools allow us to further two of our goals. First is to initiate timely and open communication and second is to effectively use innovation and technology. You’ll also find information about tourist safety and Homeland Security, which has been established to ensure that Las Vegas remains the safest tourist destination in the world. If you’re interested in employment with the LVMPD, visit us at www.protectthecity.com to see what it takes to join the force.
