      Portorikanska policija (Policía de Puerto Rico), poznata i kao Uniformirani (La Uniformada) je državna policija Puerto Rica. Uz njih postoje i lokalne (općinske) policije. Policiju osnova 1837. godine španjolski guverner kako bi zaštitio živote i imovinu stanovnika ove španjolske kolonije. Nazvani su Guardia Civil de Puerto Rico (žandarmerija Portorika). 1898. koloniju osvajaju  Sjedinjene Države Amerike i od tada vladaju njome kao teritorijem SAD-a. Oni 1899. organiziraju policijske snage pod nazivom Otočna policija Portorika (Insular Police of Porto Rico) i zapovijedao im je oficir američke vojske. Ove su snage brojale 313 policajaca pod zakletvom.

     
     

      U skorije vrijeme (2009.) dolazi do reforme policije, koju provodi zapovjednik José Figueroa Sancha. U svakoj od 13 policijskih zona postavlja po dva komandanta: jednog zaduženog za operativne poslove, a drugog za istrage. Ujedno mijenjaju i nazive iz Policijska zona u Policijska regija. Uz te promjene mijenja se i pristup prema zajednici. Policajci sve češće patroliraju pješice kroz kvartove, razgovaraju sa stanovnicima, upoznaju probleme, nešto kao kvartovski policajci u Hrvatskoj. 2009 godine Državna policija Portorika broji 18.222 policijaca.

     
     

      The Puerto Rico Police (Policía de Puerto Rico) - also known in Puerto Rico as La Uniformada (English: The Uniformed) - is the state police of Puerto Rico. The Puerto Rico Police traces its history back to 1837, when Spanish governor created La Guardia Civil de Puerto Rico to protect the lives and property of Puerto Ricans, who at the time were Spanish subjects. It provided police services to the entire island, although many municipalities maintained their own police force. Since invading and taking possession of Puerto Rico in July 1898 the United States has controlled the island as a US territory. The Insular Police of Porto Rico was created on February 21, 1899, under the command of US Marine officer with an authorized strength of 313 sworn officers.

     
   
     

      In 2009, Police Superintendent José Figueroa Sancha re-organized the Puerto Rico. Every police zone was changed to have two commanding officers: one in charge of the field operations, and the other in charge of investigations. Also, the name was changed from Police Zones to Police Regions. Also, a new policy of the agency was to get involved in the community. Officers must get out of their patrol cars and sometimes patrol on foot in neighborhoods, so they can talk to citizens and socialize, as well identify the problems that exist in the neighborhood. The Police is organized into thirteen regions. From 2009, the PRPD has over 18,222 officers.
