The Corinth Police Department offers a lot to its 40 sworn members. First, we work in a community that is extremely supportive of its men and women in blue. The local crime rate is low, which permits our peacekeepers time to engage in true, face-to-face community policing. We furnish each of our officers with approximately $10,000 worth of personal equipment, ranging from firearms to boots. Our Patrol fleet is second to none in Texas for being well-equipped, maintained, and "tricked out" for maximum officer safety. We offer a take-home car program (with restrictions). Benefits, including longevity pay, are generous. Specialized assignments include school resource officer, K-9 handler, motorcycle officer and investigator. Officers may also choose bicycle patrol as a collateral assignment.
We urge you to read on and check us out in detail. If what you've read sounds like a personal invitation to you, please get in touch right away. The potential of a life-changing career is not far away!
