Chicago has a pretty big police force unfortunately. Looks like around 12- 13k little piggies (source)
So about 25 cops here leaves… roughly 12- 13k cops in the rest of the city :P
ETA: fun facts, the Chicago Police Dept budget is just below $2 billion. That puts it right below Slovakia’s entire military budget. Slovakia’s population is ~5.5 million vs. Chicago’s 2.7 million people.
Chicago alone has almost as many cops as the entirety of Ireland (which has 14.6k cops for 5.3 million Irish citizens)
