A survey by YouGov of the twenty largest metro areas in the U.S. has revealed how residents feel about the relationship between themselves and the local police. With an overwhelming majority of 86 percent saying that relations are "very good" or "somewhat good", those in Dallas-Fort Worth appear to enjoy the most harmony with the local law enforcement. In stark contrast, and not so surprising given the current situation/tensions in the city, only a slim majority of 51 percent of Chicago residents perceived the relationship there to be good.
