Database: How many cops has your town lost?
Database: Big drop in cops 2005-2014
Cities, villages and townships across Michigan were forced to cut police officers as lower taxes -- from dwindling property taxes and state revenue sharing -- forced many to solve budget woes by going after personnel costs. With police typically the biggest department and officer pay the biggest expense, many were cut. It's left many Michigan communities with far fewer officers per capita than cities in the Midwest and the country, a byproduct of a municipal finance system that some say is broken. Statistics below are from 2005 and 2014, the latest year for which full data was available.
