Read about the force area…
- Many local people work in London and use the key road and rail links running through Hertfordshire.
- Hertfordshire is the second most densely populated county in England and Wales.
- Because it has to compete in the labour market with the neighbouring Metropolitan Police, Hertfordshire Constabulary has historically faced challenges in recruiting and retaining police officers and police staff.
- There is an advanced level of collaboration between Hertfordshire and neighbouring Bedfordshire Police. More recently, this collaboration has extended to include Cambridgeshire Constabulary.
