From Wikipedia - Reading time: 20 min

San Diego Police officers confer with FEMA Administrator David Paulison during the October 2007 California wildfires.

According to the U.S. Bureau of Justice Statistics' 2008 Census of State and Local Law Enforcement Agencies, 509 law enforcement agencies exist in the U.S. state of California, employing 79,431 sworn police officers—about 217 for each 100,000 residents.[1]

California police officers' authority is derived from the California Penal Code (PC) beginning with Section 830. PC 830.1 includes the California Department of Justice (CA DOJ) along with local and county agencies. PC 830.2 includes the California Highway Patrol (CHP) and nine other state agencies. PC 830.3 includes 21 state agencies with law enforcement divisions.[2]

The California Commission on Peace Officer Standards and Training maintains a list of state law enforcement agencies on its website.[3]

This is a dynamic list and may never be able to satisfy particular standards for completeness. You can help by adding missing items with reliable sources.
