U.S. murder rates are on track for a record drop in 2025, with a nearly 20% decline through October.
In 2025, U.S. murder rates are on track for a record-breaking decline, with preliminary data from the Real-Time Crime Index showing a nearly 20% drop in homicides through October compared to the same period in 2024, marking the largest one-year decrease in history.
The data, based on reports from 570 law enforcement agencies, also shows significant declines in aggravated assaults, carjackings, and auto thefts.
The Trump administration attributes the trend to its tough-on-crime policies, including immigration enforcement and increased law enforcement presence in major cities.
While federal officials have not yet confirmed the figures, analysts note the RTCI’s past estimates have closely matched final FBI data.
Final statistics will be released in 2026.
