The Long Beach Police Department serves the City of Long Beach, New York, and has done so since 1911. It maintains a sworn patrol force supported by specialized units including the Detective Division, Narcotics Task Force, Street Crimes Unit, Traffic Division, Motorcycle Unit, and Identification Division, with civilian staff handling clerical duties, parking enforcement, and school crossings. The department uses bicycle patrols on the Boardwalk and in the West End, and four-wheel-drive patrols on the beach, with extra help from special officers during peak months. The department has embraced community policing, seeking partnerships among community leaders, citizens, and patrol officers to earn trust and provide professional service to residents and visitors of the City by the Sea, which is home to more than 35,000 residents. A recent development in December 2025 involved the appointment of Norma Carrillo as deputy chief, illustrating leadership changes at the top.
