From the 2002 Uniform Crime Report
The average New England PD has 2.2 Officers per 1000.
It is also broken down by population groups.
populations of 250,000 + = 3.6 per 1000
100,000-249,999 = 2.9
50,000 - 99,000 = 2.1
25,000- 49,000 = 1.8
10,000- 24,999 = 1.9
under 10,000 = 1.9

My Department is at 1 per 1000 with a population group of 10,000- 24,999
I don't know of too many departments in Massachusetts that are even close to the New England Average.
