LAPD Wilshire Community Station

lazy and ineffective! don’t even show up to do anything about a homeless guy flashing young girls — LAPD sucks!!!

This is the worst station in this town, in particular the Lieutenant/​Watch commander and officer JT. They are the laziest station I have ever encountered and they can’t be bothered with potential crimes or attempted murders they only want to get off of their asses when they absolutely have to ie: blood, coroner, and toe tags. To say they need sensitivity training and to re evaluate their life’s work is an understatement! Fire them all or we’ll keep paying them to sit on their ass’.

Unbelievable. left 3 messages over 4 days. no return calls. (the voicemail said to leave a message)

Here is what can happen when dispatchers hang up on callers…

Officer W at the front desk was polite, helpful, patient, informative, and even comforting as he took my report over the phone. Although he was working the desk alone that night, he went out of his way to help me when I was in crisis. I will be writing to the Chief of Police to commend his professionalism and service.

This is for the car seat installation — (as of 10÷27÷14) take appointments from 8−11AM on Wednesdays only and the number to call to schedule this is 213−473−0215 (again, as of 10÷27÷14)

My wife and I went to this location to get our car seat checked out and for some best practice guidance. Our particular officer, Taylor, was absolutely great. He was super knowledgeable, informative, friendly and courteous. I was simply impressed.
With resources like this available locally, I don’t know why someone would go to the Pump Station of even the Sheriff. This LADP resource was absolutely perfect.

Never thought I would say this but of all the places to get excellent service, this is definitely the most surprising. I went in recently to get a baby seat installed. The officers were polite, courteous and extremely helpful. They were of diverse backgrounds and seemed to be helping families and single parents alike.
I am very impressed. What an outstanding service to provide. Thank you LAPD. We are grateful.

I grew up in Arcadia, which used to be one of the whitest white bread towns around. Virtually no crime. No gangs. No gang graffiti. No drive-​by shootings. No ATF raids in the early morning hours on the house across the street. No music blasting at 2AM from 4 blocks away. No crack heads showing up on your doorstep asking to ‘borrow’ $ 20. Nope. None of that. Just super dull and super boring. Back then, I hated how boring it was. And really resented my mom for not picking a cooler town to live in. Like Venice Beach or Hollywood.
But now? Now that my ass is old and cranky? And I made the really smart decision to buy a home at the peak of the market in a semi-​sketchy area? Ohhhhhh, how I long for that far away, dull and boring time.
One of the good things about this area is this police station. Any time I’ve had to call about a noise complaint (I’m looking at YOU, people 3 or 4 blocks away who hire a DJ several times a year to blast Banda music all night long at ear-​splitting levels), problems with neighbors (I’m looking at YOU family across the street), a molotov cocktail thrown at my car (yes, this really happened. yes, it was just like an e
