NYPD 76th Precinct

The service in this Precient is the best. Theirs always someone that gets your full attention with respect and resolve any matter they can for you. Much respect and it’s an honor to live in the neighborhood.

I’m sorry to see so many poor reviews. I’m fairly new to the neighborhood, but had an issue that resulted in my contacting the 76^th Precinct. I spoke with the Community Affairs Officer, and couldn’t be more pleased with the way he addressed my concerns. If you ever need to discuss a non-​emergency issue with the police, I highly recommend contacting the Community Affairs Officer.

This place specifically: When I was assaulted, they caught the guy, after much search. Admittedly, it was hard finding him, but the police/​detectives at the 76^th got him. That’s all I can be thankful for, seeing as I have a lack of trust for the po…

If they are not protecting me, then I will have to protect myself. And maybe by me saying that, something will happen.

Ha! A review for the good ol’ 76^th. Yeah, these guys are junk. I realize that this is the easy precinct (minus the occasional flare up in Red Hook) but still, you «officers» could pretend that you actually get paid as a public servant to do a job that consists of more than getting free pizza at Nino’s and threatening to ticket sidewalk cafes unless they bring out free apps.
