About this guide

Park County, Montana, has about 18,000 residents (2024 Census Bureau estimate). A police report belongs to the agency whose officer wrote it, so which office holds a report from Park County depends on where the incident happened: the Park County Sheriff's Office for the unincorporated county, the agency that reports for the city inside a city. This guide names each agency, where its records page is and what the Montana Public Records Act requires of it.

This guide covers which agency, the sheriff's reports, the cities' reports, how many reports, what the law requires and common questions.

Which Agency Holds a Report from Park County

The report of an incident is released by the agency that took it; the court and the jail hold their own records of the same event, but not the report.

In Park County that is the Park County Sheriff's Office for the unincorporated county and for any city that contracts with it for police service, and the agency that reports for a city where the city has one of its own.

Reports from the Park County Sheriff's Office

The Park County Sheriff's Office is the county agency; it had 12 violent and 32 property crimes reported for 2025 and reported 14 arrests for 2025.

Its reports come from its records unit, reached through the office at (406) 222-4100. The office's page SearchSystems verified is its custody page, at parkcountymt.gov/Government-Departments/Sheriff-s-Office/Inmates-Ho... (page title: Park County Montana | Sheriff's Office | Inmate Roster), phone (406) 222-4100, 414 E. Callender St. Livingston, MT 59047, which answered when SearchSystems opened it on September 24, 2026.

Reports from the City Agencies in Park County

The one city the FBI lists in Park County with a reporting agency of its own, with the police records page SearchSystems verified where the city has a guide:
