The Wire is a densely plotted and has an intricate universe.
I agree with this - although completely cross-genre, Babylon 5 and Deep Space 9 are better analogues (full disclosure, I'm in the middle of Season 3 of The Wire, roughly halfway through the entire series), than Breaking Bad is. I find myself using the same language/terminology and thinking of universe of The Wire as a real, tangible place.
Perhaps more similar to The Shield, except in The Wire - every group gets similar focus as the strike team, detectives and patrol cops did in The Shield.
