Rancho Mirage is one of the safest towns in its area of California, with the crime rate dropping consistently since 1999. The highest rate of crime in the area is, not surprisingly, for burglaries, but violent crimes are very, very low in and around the city. Still, though, it’s good to know how to contact the emergency officials in the area when you feel the need. Of course, 911 will get you through to the Rancho Mirage police, fire department, and emergency medical technicians in the event of an emergency, but you may also need to contact one of these places in a non-emergency situation.

The head of the Police Department in Ranchero Mirage, CA is currently Dan Wilham, who has more than twenty-five years of experience as an officer. Lieutenant James Navarro, a former military man, is the second in command in the county. You can contact the police department through the official government website, where there is a crime reporting form and contact numbers for various sectors of the police department. You can also find out about getting official crime and accident reports through this website.

For extra safety, the Rancho Mirage Fire Department has locations on both sides of town. One station is on Highway 111 and the other is on Gerald Ford Drive. Since the city is situated in a desert area, fires are obviously a somewhat large risk. However, the fire department is well prepared to deal with any situations that may arise. The fire department is made up of paid, rather than volunteer, firefighters from around the county, who have sworn to protect the area’s citizens from all sorts of threats. The fire marshal, Steven Brooker, can also be contacted through the Fire Department’s section of the Ranchero Mirage, CA municipal website.
