Police Precincts
Although many precincts cover areas solely within one
City Council district, there are many which overlap with
other districts. In most cases the overlap of precincts
among districts is no more than a few blocks. Wherever
there is overlap, we have made sure to alert you.
- 23rd Precinct
- 24th Precinct (Mainly covers neighborhoods in district 6, but there is some overlap along west 96th Street and surrounding Streets)
- 25th Precinct (Mainly covers neighborhoods in district 9, but overlaps with a small part of district 8)
- Central Park Precinct
