We're not a busy department by any stretch of the imagination. We run about 2,200 calls a year

Thats not bad at all. I figure we dispatch around 4 thousand calls a yr for my shift alone. Most of that is during the school yr.

Most of ours are mutual aid to surrounding stations. We have a small first due, so we end up helping our neighbors out quite a bit

I dispatch for a university police department. When we call for mutual aid we are calling Baltimore City.

I used to dispatch for the university when I was in college. We don't have a city to run mutual aid here, we are all volunteer in this county

I work in North Baltimore so we rely on BCPD and BCFD for anything we cannot handle. As for where I live we rely on the county for home. The county is a combination department. Paid and volunteer.
