Town Watch members are made up from Neighborhood Watch Coordinators, Street Captains, Law Enforcement, and anyone else who would like to be involved. Salida Town Watch is fairly unique as we are the only community in our County to have such a program.

The Town Watch was created by a committee of concerned Salida residents who were active in their Neighborhood Watch programs. It provided a community forum directly with Law enforcement to address crime issues and learn how to be more aware of crime in our neighborhoods. Initially the program was primarily for Neighborhood Watch Tract Coordinators from all over Salida to come together and share information about events in their areas. It was a way to inform the rest of the community about issues and to get support and answers directly from law enforcement.

Since then, it has evolved to include people who may not have an active Neighborhood Watch program, but are wanting to be involved in their community. If you have any questions, feel free to contact the Sheriff's Substation for more information.

If you are interested in starting or re-activating the Neighborhood Watch program in your area, please call:
