given Seattle’s population of ~800,000, we’ll be paying around $695 per resident for policing just for one year (2027)

We're looking at a chart that has 2025 police dept budgets/crime rates/size of force/etc, and what first jumps out to me is that since 2025, we've increased the SPD budget by $90 million. It's grown from $465 million in 2025 to $556 million proposed in 2027.
