The 'J' division traces its history back to the Rural West Division, which manages a large swath of previously uninhabited and agricultural areas. Rapid urbanisation resulted in a reorganisation of divisional boundaries, and the division's headquarters moved to the Taman Jurong Police Station at
Yung Ho Road in1975 . It relocated again in1980 toCorporation Road , concurrently changing its name to its present day name - Jurong Police Division.With the implementation of the Neighbourhood Police Centre system in the division in
1999 , the headquarters was moved to its present location at 2Jurong West Avenue 5 .Establishments
