PEOPLE & SOCIETY • CRIME, SAFETY & RULE OF LAW
Five years ago, America recorded 22,900 murders. The rate: 6.8 per 100,000… the highest rate since the early ’90s. Then it reversed. Hard. Jeff Asher, who tracks FBI crime data across nearly 600 police departments, projects the 2026 rate at roughly 4.0. Go back through 96 years of federal records and you won’t find a single year that low. Four straight years of historic declines… and your country’s murder rate just dropped by more than 40 percent.
