How Fall River compares
Peer cities do not publish a health & human services figure on its own, so this compares human services & culture as a whole — the category Health & Human Services sits inside. Figures are general-fund only, so enterprise funds like water and sewer are excluded on every city.
- Taunton $136
- New Bedford $94
