What the numbers mean

Nunn runs city-owned utilities, which add 20.1% of its revenue. Cities that don't run utilities will look lower on revenue and spending per resident for that reason alone. What counts as utility revenue
With about 483 residents, small changes in Nunn's budget move per-resident figures a lot. Compare several years, not one.
Too few comparable municipalities reported this year to form a peer group, so comparisons use the Colorado median.
