Questions about New York
Is there one non-emergency number for the whole of New York?
No. Non-emergency calls are answered by the local agency, so the number depends on which city, town, or unincorporated area you are in. Pick your city below, or the county if you are outside city limits.
Who answers if I live outside any city in New York?
The county sheriff's office normally covers unincorporated areas. Use the county list on this page.
What if my town is not listed?
Small towns often have no police department of their own and are policed by the county sheriff or by a neighbouring agency. Rather than show an empty page, we leave those out — go to the county page instead.
