This information is intended for residents of Irvine who frequently visit and enjoy recreating at the numerous pools available in your communities. Because pools are within a public place and often are not attended by lifeguards, the Irvine Police Department urges everyone visiting our community pools to exercise personal safety by staying alert and attentive to their surroundings, to unattended children near the pool and to suspicious activities you may observe during your visit.
Criminal behavior can endanger our personal safety, damage public and private property, and lower your quality of life. The Irvine Police Department’s Crime Prevention Unit takes a proactive approach by discussing information about crime in the community and by providing safety tips on how to prevent or reduce crime.
