The White House says the murder rate in major US cities plunged in 2025 to its lowest level in more than 125 years.
Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said the drop marks the largest single-year decrease in murders in recorded history.
"A study from the Council on Criminal Justice (CCJ) shows that the murder rate across America’s largest cities plummeted in 2025 to its lowest level since at least 1900," Leavitt said.
"This marks the largest single-year drop in murders in recorded history.
“This dramatic decline is what happens when a president secures the border, fully mobilizes federal law enforcement to arrest violent criminals and aggressively deport the worst of the worst illegal aliens from our country.”
The report found homicides fell 21 per cent from 2024 to 2025 in the 35 cities that reported data.
Sharp declines were seen in other crimes too, including robberies, carjackings and motor-vehicle thefts across reporting data.
