Crime Down in Baltimore

These shootings occurred as Baltimore continues to see a historic decline in violent crime, according to data from the mayor’s office.

As of Dec. 1, the city recorded a 29% drop in homicides and a 25% drop in non-fatal shootings for November compared with the same period last year.

Baltimore has reported 127 homicides and 288 non-fatal shootings so far in 2025, continuing a downward trend. At this time last year, the city reported 181 homicides and 385 non-fatal shootings.

“127 homicides represents the fewest number of homicides Baltimore has seen on record since at least 1970,” the mayor said.

The data also shows drops in other crimes:

Aggravated assaults: down 11%
Auto thefts: down 29%
Carjackings: down 36%

“As we enter the last month of the year, we are doubling down on our work to continue this progress into 2026 and beyond,” the mayor said. “One life lost to violence is one too many.”
