Crime in San Francisco hit record lows as the city hopefully moves toward closing the chapter on “reform” prosecutors once and for all.

In January, crime in San Francisco hit a 23-year low, with violent and property crime dropping at a far more dramatic rate than the average of similarly sized cities. Over the first three months of 2025, property crime was down 45%, car thefts were down 41%, larceny was down 29%, and robberies were down 20%. San Francisco’s monthly jail population has returned to pre-2020 levels, meaning the city is back to putting criminals in jail, capping a rise that started in mid-2023.
