Nashua Police Department

The focus of the Nashua Police Department is on community-oriented policing, which relies on individuals and neighborhood groups working with the police to prevent and reduce crime. The Nashua Police Department has sought to build a cooperative spirit between local area businesses, the citizens of Nashua and the police. Some of the avenues being used to enhance Nashua's Community Policing efforts are through Bicycle Patrols, Citizen Academies, Neighborhood Community Policing offices, Walking Patrols, K-9 Units, and the Ash Street Community Center run by the Police Athletic League. The Nashua Police Department is located on Panther Drive, directly off of Route 111 (West Hollis Street) in the western part of the City. The Department has been located in this area since 1979, where highway access is easily gained.
