	Sorry, but New York and New York City are not accepted for NYPD. oops! Great quiz idea!

	The problem has been corrected. I'm happy you like the quiz idea.

	Neat idea! In the midst of people beating me to the punch with great quiz ideas all the time here's a great one that I would never have come up with...thanks!

	It really helps to try and think about where police dramas take place...that got me #10.

	Awesome quiz! But maybe the time could come down to 2:00 or even 1:00?

	Basically, just list off the largest cities.

	Wire is the best show ever!

	should be a minute long

	knowing that Baltimore and Detroit are crime riddled should've gotten you those cities. Getting Baltimore made me think of DC, which was hard because I always try to think of biggest cities in each state. I couldn't believe I got them all.

	i thought detroit would be higher

	I think this quiz could be 2 min long, otherwise people can just start naming big cities.

	I was hoping for an answer like Indianapolice to show up. Oh well, you can't get everything.

	It's amazing that NYPD is almost three times bigger than the next city Chicago.

	i think you left reno off

	wallyballz:	Feb 25th, 2010 at 20:59 GMT		5 points
	Detroit probably SHOULD be higher

	lalalala:	Feb 26th, 2010 at 04:12 GMT		3 points
	Oh what up, New York! It's pretty much in proportion with Chicago...Chicago has 37% of the police force of NY and 34% of the population. LA totally ruins my proportion theory, though...27% of the police force and 45% of the population. I stopped after that.

	Detroit's decling population probably has led to a decline in the size of its police department.

	Isn't Washington's police department called the "Metropolitan Police Department of the District of Columbia?"

	zeke:	Oct 29th, 2010 at 19:37 GMT		3 points
	It is the Metropolitan Police Department of the District of Columbia (MPDC) because there is no government of the city of Washington. All offices including mayor, city counsel, and police department are of the District of Columbia, not Washington. - http://mpdc.dc.gov/mpdc/site/default.asp

	^ Actually, the "City of Washington" has not existed since 1870. The city is officially named the District of Columbia

	New York has 118 officers per square mile. Wow.

	NoThoughtControl:	Aug 15th, 2012 at 04:28 GMT		1 point
	Frankly, I'm glad Detroit even made this list. I figured that by now its police force would have been quite depleted due to the declining population... and severe lake of money.
