  • Ethical Behavior
  • Loyalty and Trust
  • Citizens and Employees

The Cary Police Department operates under a law enforcement philosophy we call Geo Policing, which enables our officers to become experts on the needs, issues, and concerns of the people within their district. Partnerships with our citizens are critically important because, in Cary, we believe that community safety is directly tied to how involved our citizens are in helping keep it safe. What is important to our citizens is important to us. The success of this program has been determined by how our citizens feel about it and by the changes in crime statistics. For the past 6 years, we have successfully used Geo Policing to help keep Cary one of the best places to live, work, and raise a family in America.

Geo Policing only involves the Department’s Field Operations Bureau; other functions, such as Criminal Investigations, Traffic Services, and Animal Services, remain town-wide operations.
