Geographic area patrolled by police
In the United States, a police precinct or ward is a geographical area patrolled by a police force. The term "precinct" may also refer to the main police station for such a geographical area.
Practices and cultures of policing often vary considerably from one precinct to another.[1]
Police departments using the precinct system include the following:
New York City Police Department (see Organization of the New York City Police Department#Police precincts)
Boston Police Department - now divided into districts
Portland Police Bureau
Seattle Police Department
Buffalo Police Department 1871-1995
Detroit Police Department
Chicago Police Department
Suffolk County Police Department
Nassau County Police Department
Yonkers Police Department
