Compared by size, crime mix, rates, and staffing within the same agency class · precomputed from FBI trend and NIBRS data. Methodology: agency-metrics/metrics-spec.md

Assessing a response? These agencies double as informal comparison groups: if your trend falls while comparable agencies hold steady, the case that your response worked is much stronger. See the project report template.
