The Osceola County Sheriff's Office is largest and chief law enforcement agency in Osceola County, Florida, located in Kissimmee. Per the State of Florida Constitution, the Sheriff is the chief law enforcement officer of both the incorporated and unincorporated areas of the county. The current sheriff is Russell Gibson. The agency has over 700 employees and provides a service for a very diverse population of almost 270,000. Osceola County deputies patrol 1,506 square miles (3,900 km2) which include Kissimmee, St. Cloud, Celebration, and Poinciana as well as several other unincorporated communities.
