Meath came out on top with the worst staffing levels with just 142 gardaí per 100,000.

This was followed by Kildare with 171 per 100,000 people.

The analysis found a major difference in the number of officers provided to different areas of the country.

For example, Meath has only one guard for every 703 people, compared to 1 garda for every 392 people in Dublin.
