Welcome to the Redwood City Police Department
Welcome
|
Redwood City, we hear you. We know you have questions and we want to share information to enhance transparency and provide greater access to data that we have collected. We want to be upfront that while we may not be able to answer all your questions now, we are working towards the common goal of sharing more about who our Redwood City Police Department is, how they represent the community, and how they spend their time serving you. Providing information online about the way we work and the policies that govern us is just one of the ways in which we are enhancing transparency. The ability to readily access public information encourages inclusion, allows you to be better informed about Police Department operations, and helps us work together to keep our community safe. If you have suggestions on what else you would like to see or how we can organize this information in a more helpful way, please share by emailing communitypolicing@redwoodcity.org. |

The ability to readily access public information about the Redwood City Police Department encourages inclusion, enables the public to be better informed of our operations, and promotes the spirit of working together to keep our community safe.
While the dashboard is rich in data, categorizations, and summations, each invite users to explore without formulated conclusions or framed narrative. Providing raw data and information online about the way we work and the policies that govern us is just one of the ways in which we are further advancing transparency within the Redwood City Police Department.
What's New? (June 2026)
We have launched a new Public Safety Dashboard on our Open Data Portal, giving residents and community members a more accessible way to explore public safety information and better understand emergency response activity across Redwood City and surrounding service areas.
The dashboard brings together information from three main sections: Police Department Activity, Arrests, and Fire Department Activity. Users can view activity over time, explore incidents by neighborhood and service area, apply filters, view maps and infographics, and access definitions and instructions to help navigate the data. The dashboard will be updated on a quarterly basis.
