Lake Alfred PD to Winter Haven

Address: 7101 De Castro Road, Winter Haven, FL 33880
Circuit: 10th Judicial Circuit (Polk + Hardee + Highlands)
US-17/92 Crossroads
The intersection of US-17 and US-92 defines the center of Lake Alfred. This massive commercial and freight crossroads generates heavy traffic volume. Traffic enforcement, particularly concerning commercial truck safety and speed control, is the primary focus for the LAPD.
Surrounded by Lakes
True to its name, the city is surrounded by Lake Alfred, Lake Rochelle, Lake Haines, and Lake Swoope. The public boat ramps generate seasonal enforcement. While FWC handles marine enforcement, LAPD monitors the waterfront parks for alcohol violations, parking issues, and after-hours trespassing.
Citrus Research Heritage
The city is home to the University of Florida's Citrus Research and Education Center, a massive agricultural research facility. The facility employs a significant portion of the local workforce. The surrounding citrus groves and agricultural lands require rural property protection strategies.
Polk County Clerk
The Polk County Clerk at (863) 534-4000 handles case lookups. The 10th Circuit courthouse is in Bartow. The proximity to the Winter Haven processing center makes the initial booking process relatively fast for Lake Alfred arrests.
Railroad Intersection
The CSX railroad tracks run parallel to US-92 through Lake Alfred. The interaction between heavy freight trains and the massive highway traffic volume requires constant monitoring by LAPD. The city has experienced significant residential growth as developers build out the remaining citrus lands between the lakes, slowly shifting the town's character from agricultural to a bedroom community for Winter Haven.
