There are abot 2.4 Million people in the Greater Portland Area. If the Wesen Population is 10% of the total, that's 240,000 alone! Nothing really special about that.

Just as a point of reference, the Jewish population of Oregon is 1%, or extrapolating, there are about 24,000 jews in Portland (not using any group as anything other than a point of reference) _____________________________________________________________________

Four things: 1. I believe in season 2 Hank asked the captain how many crimes were wesen related. The captain said "most of them". Being a "police" show it would tend to show more. 2. I thought at some point it was said that wesen come to Portland to be near other wesen. That would make the % of the population higher. 3. Hank and Nick investigate outside the city of Portland. They have worked several times with the Sheriff's office--allowing a greater population. 4. If the wesen population was 1% of Portland (24,000) and 10% were on criminals that would be 2400. I don't know if we have seen 2400 wesen on the show yet. Even if we have the writers probably would not keep showing the same ones.
