Safety Priorities

The North Houston District provides a variety of public safety programs and activities to supplement the hard work of local law enforcement agencies.

The District’s boundaries fall within the jurisdictions of the Harris County Sheriff’s Office and the Houston Police Department. We continually strengthen partnerships while introducing additional layers of public safety programs, such as parking lot patrols, summertime bike patrols, public park security, outreach programs, and business training opportunities aimed at providing crime prevention resources.
