> Even with that, teachers and police officers are terribly underpaid and also mistreated by the California government. The average police salary is $104k in California [0], 35% above the national average. In 2018 at least. And then the pension is 50% after twenty years or service or 90% after 33 years [1], in LA at least. This is one of the best jobs in the country, pay wise. So it’s unusual to hear someone say that police officers are underpaid.
