For the first time in a decade, every major crime category in Albuquerque is falling. Homicides are down 33 percent, and robberies and assaults are also dropping. The data is clear, our city is becoming safer. This progress comes from investing in technology, expanding community safety programs, and strong police work. Tools like gunshot detection, real time crime centers, and license plate readers help officers focus on proactive policing, while community safety teams handle lower level calls.
