In our continuing effort to be transparent with our community, the Sacramento Police Department is releasing the Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Statistics for 2019. The 2019 UCR interactive report can be found using the link below:

2019 UCR Crime Map

In an effort to improve community safety, we have included a breakdown of the statistics below. We are also including measures that our community members can take to help prevent being victimized. 

Homicides:

Sacramento continues to see a downward trend in homicides since 2015. This a testament to not only the hard work of our officers, but the community as well.  It is also positive for our community that no juveniles have been murdered in our city over the past two years.  This has been a collaborative effort by numerous individuals and several organizations throughout the greater Sacramento area. 

“While this downward trend is a positive step in the right direction, there is still work to be done.  We will continue to work collaboratively to ensure not only our youth are safe, but all people are safe in our community.  Together we build.”  - Chief Hahn
