The median salary for a cop in Ohio is around 64k, the average cost of equipment per cop is around 10-11k, with deductions happening based off if retiring cops pass down certain pieces of equipment like bullet proof vests, I believe cops pay for their 'trainings' out of pocket, but if not those add a few extra thousand dollars every couple of years. So around 75-83 thousand dollars saved per cop annually. (The range is so large to account for varying salaries, still averaged between most city centers, as opposed to lower rural salaries, since most cops are in urban areas.)
