The Farmington Hills Police Department is a full-service law
enforcement agency that provides routine, emergency and
investigative police services. In fulfilling this mission,
Police Chief Chuck Nebus has embraced a community policing
philosophy, which has proven very successful in addressing crime
and its causes, and quality of life issues. Community policing
involves forming partnerships between the police department and
the residents and businesses. This alliance identifies problems,
issues and needs, then formulates and implements courses of
action to address them.
The Police Department recognizes that great achievements may be
attained when police work with the community to create a safe
and prosperous environment. Almost two decades ago, we committed
ourselves to making Farmington Hills one of the safest cities in
the country. Due in no small part to the police-community
partnership, the City of Farmington Hills consistently ranks
among the safest cities in the country. The CQ Press annually
examines the crime statistics of nearly 393 cities nationwide.
Farmington Hills consistently ranks among the safest. Crime data
from 2009, the most recent data analyzed, revealed that
Farmington Hills ranked as the 30th safest city in the nation
and the 2nd safest city in Michigan and serious, Group A crime
decreased 6.4%.
Mission Statement
