We Are LCPD
The Las Cruces Police Department is staffed by a motivated group of professional officers and civilian personnel who are committed to helping keep our city a safe place to live, work and visit.

The department services a city with a population of about 115,000 residents. In each of the last couple of years, officers have responded to roughly 410 calls for service each day – or about 150,000 per year.
