01About this service

About this service

A neighborhood watch is a group of neighbors who look out for their streets, share what they notice and report it to the police. Registering the group links it to its district’s community team.

Registered groups get a community officer at their first meetings, free street signs, the district’s weekly crime map and scam alerts before anyone else.

Who it’s for

  • Five neighbors or more who want to look out for their block
  • Homeowner and tenant associations
  • Shop owners on the same street

02How it works

3 steps, start to finish.

  1. Step 1: Gather your neighbors

    At least five members, a name for the group, the streets you cover and a block captain.

  2. Step 2: Register online

    The registration is issued at once and appears in the block captain’s wallet in My Leonida.

  3. Step 3: Meet your community officer

    The district’s community officer joins one of your first meetings to explain what to report and how.

03What to prepare

Have these ready.

  • A name for the group
  • The streets or blocks you cover
  • Your number of members

Ways to do it

  • Online

    Register and renew the group from My Leonida.

  • In person

    Street signs and meeting rooms at your district station.

Your request goes straight to the team in charge. Keep your reference number: it is your proof of filing.
