Fruita Police Department
The Fruita Police Department’s commitment to the safety and well-being of our community takes center stage. At the heart of the City of Fruita, Colorado, the Fruita Police Department is devoted to ensuring the security of its citizens through steadfast dedication and a strong set of values.
As we reflect on our achievements, it is with pride that we share the remarkable statistics that highlight Fruita's safety. The 2020 crime rate in Fruita stands at 96 on the crime index, marking it 2.7 times lower than the U.S. average. This accomplishment is not a singular event but part of an ongoing trend, as the 2020 Fruita crime rate experienced a notable 26% decrease compared to 2019.
Over the past five years, Fruita has consistently witnessed a decline in both violent and property crimes. This positive trajectory shows our relentless efforts to create a secure environment for our residents. At the Fruita Police Department, our vision extends beyond mere law enforcement – we envision a community where people feel safe, where residents can thrive without fear, and where the bonds between citizens and law enforcement are built on trust.
Our values serve as the cornerstone of our mission. Honor, integrity, and courage are not just words to us; they represent the principles that guide our actions every day. We strive to uphold the highest standards of honor in our interactions, maintain unwavering integrity in our service, and demonstrate the courage needed to protect and serve our community.
We encourage our citizens to actively seek help from us – whether it's addressing concerns, reporting incidents, or simply engaging with our officers. Your safety and peace of mind are our top priorities, and we are here to listen, support, and protect.
Thank you for entrusting the Fruita Police Department with the responsibility of safeguarding our wonderful community. Together, we are building a safer, stronger Fruita.
