The two storey brick building which houses the Princeton RCMP detachment was built in 1983 at the latest, as there is a Canadian Benchmark in the building's foundation which was monumented in 1983. The address is 200 Highway 3, Princeton, BC V0X 1W0. Jail cells are within the building, as well. The detachment is manned by seven officers and two civilian support staff.

During the fourth quarter of 2012 Princeton RCMP responded to 473 calls for service, compared with 439 calls during the fourth quarter of 2011. This corresponds to an increase of 7%.

Visit Instructions:
To log a visit, you must post a photo of you in front of the building described, with your GPS in the photo. No drive by photos.

I have had NO problems with taking photos of Police stations but please respect the fact that some services may be nervous about having their photo taken and inquire as to why... I have found that once things are explained they are more than happy to let me photograph the building, crest, chief... (they are people too!)
