yeah for sure. there's a lot of 1-horse towns that are less than 5% of that size tho, especially in the rural midwest. i think where my grandparents live is barely over 2k. when i was little it was under 1k and the town only had two cops and they had to share an old crown vic.
Yeah, it would be hard to cover every population center, but I feel like many of those places have a nearby town that's accessible and quite a bit bigger. The next town over where people go if they need to do something their town doesn't have. There are only about 5000 municipalities total with 10,000 or more people, but I feel like almost the entire population lives less than an hour from one of those.
