How Brookdale College Police Department's sworn staffing compares with its real peer group (same agency type, similar size band), not an assumed bell curve.
Peer group: Municipal police, 1-14 officers (n=100)
| Range | Agencies |
|---|---|
| 0–2 | 13 |
| 2–4 | 3 |
| 4–6 | 1 |
| 6–8 | 17 |
| 8–10 | 11 |
| 10–12 | 15 |
| 12–14 | 40 |
Brookdale College Police Department: 12 sworn officers: 66th percentile among Municipal police, 1-14 officers (n=100).
The match between this FBI record and this department is this site's inference, not a certified mapping. If it is wrong, we will remove it: corrections.
Officer pay and school-staff pay
No median officer salary is published for Brookdale College Police Department. A department needs at least 10 active officers resolved to it in the NJ Treasury pension file before this site shows a median. That threshold is about the stability of the figure, not about the department. The county-level comparison is on the Monmouth County pay page.
Military surplus equipment (1033 program)
No 1033 transfers recorded. No surplus-equipment transfers appear for this agency under a high-confidence name match in the Defense Logistics Agency's file as of 2026-06-30. That can mean the agency received nothing through the program, or that a recipient name in the federal file did not confidently match this department. See the methodology for how the match is made, or the statewide 1033 overview for how the program spreads across New Jersey.

How the grade is built
Three components, each a percentile within the peer group. The combined standing is their weighted mean, re-ranked among peers; the grade is the fifth of the peer group it lands in.
IA volumeweight 40%
100.0 investigations per 100 officers (multi-year mean)
Internal affairs investigations per 100 reported officers, averaged over the years where the agency reported both figures.
Discipline severityweight 40%
0.0 severity-weighted discipline per 100 officers, 2020-2025
Major discipline records weighted by sanction (termination 4, demotion 3, suspension 2, other 1) per 100 officers.
Allegation severityweight 20%
2.00 mean severity tier (1 low - 4 critical)
Mean severity tier of IA allegations across 2021-2025, using the published tier map; unknown values excluded.
What this grade can and can't tell you
- The underlying data is self-reported by agencies, one yearly snapshot at a time.
- Allegations are not findings; many complaints end unfounded, exonerated, or not sustained.
- There is no arrest or call-volume denominator in this data, so nothing here is a per-capita misconduct rate. A genuinely independent staffing-based rate, sourced from the FBI rather than this grade's own data, appears above when available. It is a different measurement, not a more accurate version of the grade.
- A higher internal affairs volume is ambiguous: it can indicate more misconduct, or a more robust oversight and reporting culture. The grade weighs it anyway, because volume is what the record offers; that choice is published, not hidden.
- The grade is one lens. The records it reads are on this page above.
Major discipline records
No major discipline records appear for this agency in the 2020-2025 releases. Absence of records is not a finding; see the methodology for what this data does and does not cover.
Public records requests
No records-request history is shown for this department. OPRAmachine, an independent site that files and publishes Open Public Records Act requests, has no public body that confidently matches this department, so this site does not assert one. That does not mean nobody has requested records from it. (Checked against a snapshot of OPRAmachine taken 12 July 2026.) See the methodology for how the match is made.
