Violent crime has plunged in America’s largest cities.
Data from nearly 70 major law enforcement agencies shows violent crime fell across almost every single category in early 2026 compared to the same period the year before.
The decline is present in every US region—a nationwide trend.
Homicides fell 17.7%.
Robberies fell 20.4%.
Rapes fell 7.2%.
Aggravated assaults—4.8%.
Some of America’s cities saw massive decreases in homicides in particular. In Washington DC, there was a fall of 64.7%; in Philadelphia, 54%; San Diego, 50%; and Memphis, one of the most violent cities in the US, homicides decreased by 34.4%.
President Trump made law and order one of his flagship policies for his second term, sending federal agents and the National Guard in a series of “surges” to cities including Washington DC, Chicago, Portland, Oregon, Memphis and Los Angeles.
In Washington DC, there were over 2,100 arrests in the first 30 days, and thousands more in the weeks that followed.
A “Make DC Safe and Beautiful” task force focused on clearing homeless encampments, targeting violent offenders and seizing guns and drugs.
The Metropolitan Police Department, DC National Guard, federal agents including FBI, and National Guard from other states took part in the surge in the capital.

World Cup is coming. Like when the Pope visits some South American Sh** hole, they crack down till he’s gone. To hell with the locals just bring that money in.
Quick, Alex, do your new Orange Man Bad slopaganda!
That’s great, but there’s probably an uptick in the suburbs. There usually is when they crack down in the cities.
I think municipalities are reporting lower crime to keep Trump away. I see no basis for the idea that crime is dropping lots in the leftist run cities.
It’s great that presidents have the power over DC. This is not a cronyism issue. Citizens want law enforcement and safely, while some commenter is whining about contracts. The commenter just wants to whine about anything good Trump does.
These companies that Trump has given contracts to are his donors who are raking in literally billions of taxpayers money like GEO and corecivic. And what good has Trump done? Well? I haven’t got all day

Why is it that the same companies ALWAYS supply and are the ONLY ones to supply the tools needed?
Rubber stamp?

Which companies dominate the fields?
THIS IS WHAT THE TAXPAYERS WANT TO KNOW.
CRONYISM.
What in the world are you whining about contracts for?
Well goof, you have to have tools.
So I take it that you are for contracts beng given to your buddies?
Don’t you know how a business operates at all?
