The average police response time in the United States generally ranges between 5 to 11 minutes for emergency calls.

Average Response Times by Call Priority Police departments prioritize calls based on the severity and immediacy of the threat. High Priority / Level 1 Emergencies: Average response times for life-threatening incidents (e.g., active shooters, violent crimes in progress) are typically 5 to 6 minutes. Active Shooter Incidents: The FBI notes a median response time of approximately 3 minutes for these specific emergencies. Low Priority / Non-Critical Calls: Response times for property crimes or non-urgent situations can exceed 10 to 15 minutes and, in some cases, take over an hour. https://share.google/aimode/FvcRokghddQhv66sB -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "massfire" group.
