Police stations claim jurisdiction over an area. That area and all buildings contained in it become part of a city. The jurisdiction area of a police station is shown as a dotted circle around the police station, while constructing buildings.

The first police station added to a city must encompass the capitol building in its jurisdiction area. Additional police stations must include the capitol building or an existing police station in their jurisdiction areas.

Police jurisdiction areas from one city cannot overlap the jurisdiction areas of any other cities.

Morale

One police station is required for every 60 population in a city in order to avoid morale penalties.
