North Yorkshire and the City of York is already one of the safest areas in the country, and creating even safer neighbourhoods for every community is at the heart of everything we do.

On this website you can meet the officers who patrol your neighbourhood, and read regular updates about recent crimes and anti-social behaviour. Simply enter your postcode below to visit your local Safer Neighbourhood Team page.

We have been working to standardise the purchase of our vehicles, and in the coming months and years members of the public will begin to see a smaller range of police vehicles on the roads of North Yorkshire.

The outcome of standardisation means we get better discounts, our technicians need less training on different vehicles, we stock fewer parts, repairs and maintenance is more efficient and users are more familiar with the vehicles.

If you're interested, you can read more about our vehicle fleet.
