About the Richland Hills Police Department


 

Our Mission Statement

Our mission is to provide quality police services through partnerships with the community; to protect constitutional rights through ethical decision-making and to strive to provide leadership to the police profession because we believe in the dignity and worth of ALL people.

Our Vision Statement

The Richland Hills Police Department is committed to being a model law enforcement agency employing a highly motivated team who embodies professionalism, integrity, and enthusiasm, fostering partnerships with one another and the community that will enrich the quality of life for all.

Our Community

The location of Richland Hills in the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex is unmatched. Encompassing approximately 3.9 square miles in Northeast Tarrant County, the City borders the northeast corner of Fort Worth, is less than 20 miles from the Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport, less than 15 miles to downtown Fort Worth and less than 30 miles to downtown Dallas. The City fronts State Highway 183, State Highway 121, and State Highway 26. Easy access is provided to each via Interstate 820. Maps to the City 
 
Railroad access is currently available to the City's largest industrial park and commuter rail connects Richland Hills to downtown Fort Worth and Dallas. Very few other communities in the Metroplex can offer this combination of intermodal access to the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex.
