Lee Police Department

Around-the-clock police coverage in Lee, Massachusetts, is dispatched through a regional center that the Berkshire County Sheriff operates, and the town's police department counts a mental health co-responder and reserve officers among its staff. Through an Elder Well-Being Check, residents over 60 and people who are homebound or disabled call the regional dispatch center before 11 a.m. each day, and if no call comes in and a dispatcher cannot reach them by phone, an officer goes to the home to make sure the person is safe. Homeowners who will be away can file an extra patrol form so officers keep an eye on a vacant house. Traffic safety work combines driver education with enforcement of state traffic laws and local bylaws, and the department uses crash data to decide where to send patrols, along with moving and stationary radar and a portable traffic analyzer. Requests for police records go through the town clerk, who handles them as the state public records statute, Massachusetts General Laws Chapter 66, Section 10, directs.

According to the U.S. Census Bureau (ACS 2023), Lee CDP, MA has an estimated population of 1,522.
