From Small Town to Thriving Region
Connected to San Andreas via a bridge near Paleto Bay, Roxwood County has grown into a vast region spanning multiple cities and diverse landscapes. From the urban center of Roxwood City to the coastal beauty of Whetstone City and the tropical shores of Marina Beach - our law enforcement agencies work together to keep this growing community safe.
Inspired by Central and Northern California, Roxwood County features farmlands, dense forests, winding mountain roads, scenic coastlines, and island developments. Despite our growth, we maintain our commitment to community-focused policing.
"In Roxwood, we don't just serve the community - we are the community."
