Official reports show that crime rates in the United States decreased significantly throughout 2024 and have continued to fall into mid-2025, following a spike during the COVID-19 pandemic. Despite this downward trend, property crime remains more common than violent crime, and rates vary greatly by geography and specific offense.📷
National crime trends in 2024–2025
Data from the FBI and Council on Criminal Justice reveal a broad decline in crime over the past two years.
Violent crime:
Overall decrease: The national violent crime rate fell by 4.5% in 2024 compared to 2023, reaching its lowest rate since 1969. Preliminary data for the first half of 2025 indicates this decline is continuing.
Homicides: The murder rate dropped by nearly 15% in 2024, representing the largest single-year decline on record and continuing a downward trend from a pandemic-era peak.
Other violent offenses: In 2024, robbery offenses decreased by 8.9%, rape by 5.2%, and aggravated assault by 3%.
Areas of concern: Despite overall reductions, aggravated assault rates remained above pre-pandemic levels in 2024.
Property crime:
Overall decrease: The national property crime rate decreased by 8.1% in 2024, the lowest rate recorded since 1961.
Vehicle theft: After a significant increase during the pandemic, motor vehicle theft declined by 18.6% in 2024. This trend has continued into 2025.
Shoplifting: Bucking the downward trend, reported shoplifting increased by 8.9% in 2024.
Most common offense: Larceny-theft remains the most prevalent form of property crime, making up more than 70% of reported property crimes in 2023.
Factors influencing crime rate fluctuations
While no single factor explains all crime trends, experts point to a convergence of socioeconomic and systemic factors behind recent fluctuations.
COVID-19 pandemic and economic instability:The 2020 spike in homicides is strongly linked to disruptions caused by the pandemic, such as school closures and job losses, which disproportionately affected young men in low-income neighborhoods.
As economic conditions improved and normal routines resumed, crime rates began to decline.

As economic conditions improved and normal routines resumed, crime rates began to decline.
Demographics: Historically, crime has been higher among young males, and changes in this demographic group can influence overall crime rates.
Policing and criminal justice policies: Research suggests that policing strategies and criminal justice reforms can have an effect on local crime rates, though the impact varies by jurisdiction.
Socioeconomic factors: Community characteristics like population density, poverty levels, and economic inequality are significantly associated with varying crime rates across different areas.
Geographic and demographic variations
Crime is not distributed evenly across the U.S., with rates differing widely depending on location and population group.
State-level differences: In 2023, states like New Mexico and Alaska had much higher violent crime rates than states like Maine and New Hampshire.
Urban vs. rural: While some major cities have historically higher crime rates, property crime rates can be similar in smaller cities and suburbs. Rural areas generally experience lower rates.
Race and ethnicity: In 2023, the homicide victimization rate was significantly higher for Black individuals compared to White or Asian individuals. Perceived offenders in violent incidents are disproportionately male and Black relative to their share of the population.
Age and sex: Young people (ages 18-24) experience the highest homicide victimization rates. Males are significantly more likely to be homicide victims than females.
