The Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) is the police department of the city of Los Angeles, California. With just over 10,000 officers and more than 3,000 civilian staff, covering an area of 498 square miles (1,290 km²) with a population of more than 3.8 million people, it is the third largest local law enforcement agency in the United States, after the police departments of New York and Chicago.

The LAPD has been heavily fictionalized in numerous movies and television shows throughout its history. The department has also been involved in a number of controversies, mostly involving racial animosity, police brutality and police corruption.
