I want to replace the Fat_cop with female officers, but just like the Taxi and LCPD cars, once they start spawning, they are the only thing that spawn for upwards of 10 minutes. This is less realisitic than 50 fat cops and a SWAT team being the only officers out there, then suddenly a bunch of skinny cops. 

So, is there an .ini file or something that controls the time it takes for the game to switch between Skinny and Fat? Probably the same system that chooses the two police cars. If there isnt one, then I guess I'll just add a female head or two to the skinny cop files and get used to them talking like men.


BONUS QUESTION:
What files control traffic diversity  I have a mod that changes some things about traffic (not the traffic flow mods, though I do use Sam's too.) but during the "max presence" time (when he says there should be a noticable amount of police) I get passed by about 5 cops per road. I'd like to seriously lower the number of cops driving around, down to 1 or 2 every 5 blocks or so. What do I edit?

Thanks!

Popcycle.dat (Rockstargames/GTA IV/Common/Data/Popcycle.dat) controls the traffic. When you want fewer or more police cars to spawn, you'll have to edit the "PercCopCars" line for each district in Liberty City. If you want more or fewer police on foot to spawn, edit the line "PercCopPed", again for each district.  

In your case, just scroll to  "PercCopCars" and put the number "1" in every line. It's a lot of data so be prepared to spend a lot of time changing them. I know since I changed mine as well.

Or you could do as Scott said and install the "less cops mod". I myself prefer custom settings.

Yeah, I sort of combined it. Downloaded the less cops mod, then used notepad++ to change the police columns in my popcycle (which was modified for more spawning) to be the same as the less-cops one. Thank you for the tips though!
