Who covers your address in Missouri
In Missouri, city police departments cover incorporated areas and county sheriff’s offices cover the rest. This matters around St. Louis and Kansas City, where a mailing address can sit outside the city limits it names, and the agency that answers is the county, not the city.
If you are not sure whether your address falls inside city limits, our guide on police departments vs sheriff’s offices explains how to tell.
Before you call
Have the address or nearest cross streets ready, a short factual description of what happened and when, and say straight away if the person involved has already left. Our guide on when to call 911 versus the non emergency line covers the cases that are not obvious.
