St. Louis, Missouri: reported violent crime, FBI 2025 data
@fletch_b252 · 22d ago
St. Louis's reported violent crime rate fell 10.5% in 2025, to 1,224 per 100,000 residents, from 1,367 in 2024 (FBI Crime Data Explorer, Table 8). These count only crimes reported to police, and one year's change doesn't show which policy, if any, caused it.
Reported violent crime per 100,000 residents, FBI 2025: 1,224, down 10.5% from 1,367 in 2024 (3,364 reported violent crimes vs. 3,791; population 274,819). Murder: 141 reported in 2025 vs. 150 in 2024, a rate of 51.3 per 100,000. Robbery 585 (from 692); aggravated assault 2,528 (from 2,788). Property crime, reported separately: 5,001 per 100,000, down 12.4% from 5,707. What this doesn't cover: These are crimes reported to police within each agency's boundary. Rates depend on city boundaries, population estimates and reporting practices, so a ranking can mislead. The FBI cautions that national estimates do not describe the experience of every community. The table only includes agencies that submitted 12 complete months of data. Sources: FBI Crime Data Explorer, CIUS 2025 Table 8; CIUS 2024 Table 8.
National context: the FBI estimates the national violent crime rate fell from 362.9 to 327.6 per 100,000 in 2025 (FBI, Reported Crimes in the Nation 2025).
