Altoona Police Department
Abbreviation
APD
Jurisdictional structure
General nature
Local civilian police
Altoona and the Altoona Area are serviced by several companies for emergency services. Given that Altoona is entirely encompassed by Logan Township, and some small areas within the city are belonging to the Township, City and Township services often intermingle. Given the close proximity to Hollidaysburg and Duncansville Boroughs as well as Allegheny and Blair Townships, City, borough and township services will often assist or be called in place of each other
The Altoona Police Department (APD) services the City. APD is about 66 strong, and the headquarters is located on 16th St downtown.
