Source was a breakdown of the analysis of the police budget. Checked the scheduled pay for officers on the Seattle gubment website. Cost of living is not 2x, and the cost of living assessment holds up if you're assuming these officers actually live IN Seattle.
Which for 150k as a patrol officer you could.
Also here's Seattle's
proposed police budget. $401milly was accurate for 2020, majority of which goes to Salary. Woof.
