1:100 seems insane. I live in a community of 10,000 people, and we don’t have anything close to 100 people working in the RCMP. MAYBE 20-30, including support

Just checked our major urban centre in Canada, and it’s around 1:450. As a comparison, that makes New Orleans (1:385) pretty well staffed.
Would be cool to find data covering major urban centres across the world for comparisons.
New York City has a ratio of 1:166
And NYC is wildly over-policed.
