Nixle is a free service that allows you to receive trusted, up-to-the-minute neighborhood information for where users live, work or visit; or for where users' family and friends are located throughout the country. Nixle's Municipal Wire is the first standardized, secure and certified communication platform for local police departments, municipalities, and their agencies to communicate important, neighborhood-level information to the residents of their communities. Nixle's Municipal Wire is available at no cost to residents or police departments, and uses the same compelling model as social applications, such as Twitter and Facebook, while adding the security that is critical to ensure information received by users is trusted and accurate. Residents receive all information immediately by text message, e-mail and the Web.
