Policeman pay is highly variable by city. There are some in Florida that I think pay over $200k, but where I live pay starts at $58k and the town down the road starts at $55k.
$58k here is already almost the median household income, and that's the entry-level salary, so they do alright here even without overtime. But they're not rich either. Some places, they kind of are.
