The Richardson Police Department (RPD) announced this week that Richardson has been awarded 2nd place in the nation for Category 2 (population 100,000-300,000) in the National Association of Town Watch 2025 National Night Out (NNO) competition. This recognition highlights RPD’s efforts in celebrating National Night Out this year and its longstanding commitment to fostering police-community partnerships.
For NNO 2025, the department collaborated with local residents and businesses to organize block parties and park celebrations across the city, with participation from police officers, firefighters, city and state officials, volunteers and special guests, including Miss Texas.
National Night Out is held each year in Texas on the first Tuesday of October. Richardson has ranked in the top 10 nationally in Category 2 for the past eight years (and in the top two spots for the past six years).
