Residents of Harris County Municipal Utility District No. 495, including King Crossing, will see a visible change in neighborhood safety starting Feb. 7, 2026: police patrol services have been assigned to the Harris County Constable’s Office, Precinct 5. The new patrol coverage is intended to improve response coordination and provide residents with a single, consistent law enforcement contact for non-emergencies.

The District’s notice says the Constable dispatch operates 24/7 and that residents should continue to call 911 only for true emergencies. For non-emergency matters and general assistance, the Constable’s Office, Precinct 5, can be reached at 281-463-6666. The notice was distributed by Harris County Municipal Utility District No. 495 to ensure homeowners know how to reach the correct agency and receive prompt service .

Why This Matters To Homeowners

Consistent patrol coverage affects more than perception: coordinated law enforcement presence can shorten response times for reports, simplify alarm dispatch procedures, and offer clearer communication between residents and officers. That can translate to greater reassurance for families, stronger documentation of neighborhood incidents for insurance or legal purposes, and a positive signal to prospective buyers about community safety.
