California police officers are the highest paid in the nation
When we compiled the data, we found that police officer salaries range from about $35,000 per year to $100,000 per year, with a national average of $64,490.
California ranks first in both actual salary ($100,090) and adjusted salary ($87,491).
Methodology
To gather the raw data for this analysis, we pulled salaries from the May 2017 Occupational Employment and Wages report, released by the Bureau of Labor Statistics for Police and Sheriff’s Patrol Officers. We then obtained Regional Price Parities (RPP), which measure the difference in price level between states and metro areas, from the Bureau of Economic Analysis. The adjusted salary numbers were calculated by dividing the annual mean salary by the price parity. The adjusted salary represents purchasing power based on the cost of living in each state.

Find out which Golden State campus keeps you the safest
For a long time, California dreamin’ became California streamin’ while we stayed indoors and online. With many students now returning to campus, deciding majors, buying books, and class selection are top-of-mind, but what about safety? Here at YourLocalSecurity.com, we did your homework for you and assembled the safest campuses statewide.
So before you hit the book and the surf, see which colleges made the cut for your state and nationwide.
Methodology
To determine the safest colleges in each state, we analyzed Uniform Crime Report and Campus Safety and Security data for schools that meet the following criteria:
- 5,000+ students enrolled
- Two- or four-year degrees offered
- Public, private, or non-profit institution
For the three crime factors, the rate reported has been compared against the population per 1,000 people within the city limits. The lower the rate, the lower the number of crimes reported in that category:
- Violent crimes per 1,000 people
- Property crimes per 1,000 people
- Hate and VAWA (crimes against women) crimes per 1,000 people
Interesting Findings
- Out of our top 10, Chapman University has the lowest crime rate at 1.3 per 1,000 people.
- The University of San Diego made the top spot for the 10 safest colleges in California and landed in seventh place in the top 25 safest campuses nationwide.
- Four of our 10 schools are based in Los Angeles: Loyola Marymount, CSULA, UCLA, and the University of Southern California.
- Loyola Marymount University has the lowest VAWA/Hate rate at 2.4 per 1,000 people.
- The University of the Pacific is one of the two private universities in California that gives security personnel full police authority for campus safety efforts.
Which California Cities Have the Lowest Car Theft Rates?
What's the 411 on Car Theft?
Car theft has trended downward in the past ten years—especially in these cities—thanks to city-wide surveillance, anti-theft devices, and neighborhood watch programs. As car theft evolves, though, it’s just as important to keep car owners up to date on common sense safety and preventative measures (such as not leaving a key fob in the car).
Traditionally, car thieves targeted older vehicles because outdated technology made them easy for thieves to break into without triggering alarms. But other criminals—hackers—go for newer vehicles. It’s easy for hackers to steal or take control of connected or self-driving cars since their computer-based systems have loopholes.
Methodology
We analyzed motor vehicle thefts per 1,000 people using 2018 FBI Crime data in cities with a population above 25,000 that accurately reported their data (according to the FBI).
