In General

Unlike the Fire Stations of Baltimore County, which are numbered in a more or less random order starting with Station 1 in Towson, the county seat, the Police stations are numbered in order starting in the SW corner of the county, with Station 1 being Wilkens, and going in a clockwise manner to Dundalk, Precinct 12, on the SE side of the county.

As mentioned on the Fire and Police homepage, the headquarters is on Joppa Rd east of Towson proper, and the 911 center is in the new courthouse building.

  The BaltCo Public Safety Building on Joppa Rd.

  The "new" Courthouse Building.



License Plates

Baltimore County uses a variety of license plates on their police vehicles.

 
The standard issue police car plate has a "BA" on it, along with a four digit number.  Baltimore city cars have a "BC" on them.

Cars and vehicles that are not police cars per se, have a state issued "LG" Plates, for local government.

Unmarked cars will have any of the standard issue license plates for the state.  Although taking pictures of license plates is not illegal, I once had a marked BaltCo police car pull me over in the middle of York Road once after taking picture of an unmarked car.  My guess, is because he asked nicely, that the car might have belonged to an undercover cop, and didn't want the picture "out there".  Both Baltimore County and the State Police use any form of car or truck as an unmarked police vehicle.... so remember this when you're driving in Maryland.

Prior to the new station opening, Precinct 6 was around the corner in this early 1900's building.  I think the new stationed opened in 2010 maybe?
