Almost every European country has a higher ratio of police officers to citizens than the USA. We actually have 50% fewer officers per person than europe.
The nordics and England have a lower ratio, while Italy and most of Eastern Europe is lousy with cops. Lots of European cops are unarmed and low paid. Police in the US are also hideously expensive.
