neighborhood watch

Do you participate in the Virtual Neighborhood Watch Program?

Neighborhood Watch is a powerful tool that brings citizens together to make their neighborhoods safer places to live. Residents are more familiar with their neighborhood than anyone and are the most qualified to recognize when something is amiss. Neighbors work in partnership with the police department to identify suspicious or unusual people, vehicles, or activity that may indicate a developing problem.


Virtual Neighborhood Watch lets you register your exterior cameras with the Norfolk Police Department. Registering your camera(s) lets the NPD know where cameras are located so that they can contact you and request footage if a crime occurs near your home. Registration is easy! Use this link to create an account from the City of Norfolk Community Affairs Page.


Keep it lit. Lock it up. If you see something, say something.
