The Somerset County Sheriff's Department has some of the most reasonable, professional, and personable deputies I've ever dealt with. They take the time to listen, treat people with respect, and handle situations calmly and fairly. It's clear they care about the community they serve and work hard to build positive relationships with the public. Somerset County is fortunate to have deputies who are approachable, respectful, and committed to doing their jobs well. Townsend
