Comparative data for 2022 is not yet available. <br />** Population range was estimated based on latest available data. <br />The City's capital outlay and debt service expenditures have been higher than the state-wide average for <br />a city of a comparable population. Current expenditures have been similar to state-wide averages as well <br />with a noted increase in 2022 related to increased Public Safety expenditures. Overall, governmental <br />expenditures decreased $686 on a per capita basis when comparing 2022 to 2021 due to the large drop in <br />capital expenditures in the current year as larger projects from the previous year were completed. <br />22 <br />
