Employment There were about 661,500 police officers, sheriffs, and detectives in Almost 9 out of 10 worked for local government. The rest worked for state or federal police agencies.

Nature of the Work Police officers and detectives enforce laws. They catch criminals. They collect evidence. They sometimes testify in court. Others patrol set areas to prevent crime. Some patrol and give out traffic tickets. Some direct traffic.

Training and Education Most police officers must be U.S. citizens. They must be healthy, strong, and of good character. To get a job, a person must pass a written test, be at least a high school graduate, and have some work experience. Some local, special, and State police units want recruits to have some college training. All Federal police agencies require a college degree. Many police units encourage new recruits to take college courses in police work.

Job Outlook Job opportunities in most local police departments will be favorable for qualified individuals, whereas competition is expected for jobs in State and Federal agencies. As fast as average employment growth is expected.

Career Field Employment of police officers and detectives is expected to increase about as fast as the average for all occupations through Many people are attracted to police work because it is challenging and offers an opportunity to serve their communities. Persons with college training in police science or who have military experience, or both, should have the best chances for a job.

Summary of what I learned Most police officers work on foot or ride in cars, but a few ride horses, bikes, or motorcycles. Some work in boats on rivers and in harbors. Some police work with dogs.

Earnings Police and sheriff's patrol officers had median annual wages of $51,410 in May The middle 50 percent earned between $38,850 and $64,940. The lowest 10 percent earned less than $30,070, and the highest 10 percent earned more than $79,680. Median annual wages were $46,620 in Federal Government, $57,270 in State government, $51,020 in local government and $43,350 in educational services.
