Levittown Criminal Court Records in Bucks County

Levittown is a census-designated place in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, with about 52,000 residents. Unlike a city or township with one governing body, Levittown spans three municipalities: Falls Township, Bristol Township, and Tullytown. All criminal court records tied to Levittown are maintained by the Bucks County Clerk of Courts in Doylestown. The municipal boundary where an incident occurred also determines which police department holds the relevant police report. This page explains how to search Levittown criminal court records and where to find them.

Levittown Criminal Records Across Multiple Municipalities

Levittown does not have its own government. It is a planned community that was developed in the 1950s and spans three separate townships in Bucks County. Falls Township covers the largest portion of Levittown. Bristol Township includes parts of the eastern section. Tullytown, the smallest of the three, makes up a southern portion of the community. Each municipality has its own police department, and the police department covering the address where an incident took place is where the arrest record will originate.

Despite the multi-municipality structure, all criminal court records from Levittown end up in the same place. The Bucks County Clerk of Courts in Doylestown holds all criminal filings from Falls Township, Bristol Township, and Tullytown. The county court system is unified under the 7th Judicial District. So while police records vary by municipality, court records do not. You go to one office, the Bucks County Clerk of Courts, for all Levittown criminal dockets and case files.

Note: If you need a police report from a Levittown incident, you must contact the correct municipality. The police department for the address involved is the one that holds the report, not the county court clerk.
