A Message from the Chief
Our Welcome message from Chief Evans to you
Welcome to “The City of Royal Treatment”, where we strive as a community to bring you the royal southern hospitality and welcome you to one of the top 50 safest cities being the 7th largest in the state.
I hope in your time here you enjoy the friendly faces, beautiful scenery and picture perfect location. Kingsland is a small community surrounded by the beautiful marshes and creeks of the Georgia Coast and we are located just 3 miles North from the state line connecting our slice of southern charm to our neighbors to the south in the sunshine state. We are approximately 45 minutes from downtown Jacksonville, 35 minutes from the beaches of Fernandina, less than 20 minutes from our sister city in St. Mary’s Georgia but wherever you chose to go and whatever you chose to do you can always remember that Kingsland will be home to you and your family at the end of the day with our other 21,000 residents.
You can enjoy your time here safely knowing that our proud men and women of the Kingsland Police Department are standing the watch, day and night to make sure you and your loved ones can be at peace here. Our mission at the Kingsland Police Department is to improve the quality of life by reducing fear, preventing crime and enforcing the law while protecting each individual's freedoms guaranteed by the United States Constitution.
