2000 Best Practices Study

Population Density Analysis – Agencies with Revenues Greater Than $1.25M The population density analysis provides another valuable picture of the operating characteristics of the agencies included in the Best Practices Study Executive Update. In general, a comparison among agencies of a similar size is the best comparison basis, but an evaluation based on community size can prove helpful when an agency is atypical in nature, such as a larger revenue agency in a smaller community. As always, consider these data in light of the results achieved by agencies of a similar revenue size to gain the best understanding of Best Practices agencies.
