Thanks to Milei, thefts and burglaries in Argentina fell sharply in 2025.

The data, compiled from the National Criminal Information System (SNIC), thus reflects a simultaneous reduction in the main property crimes, in a context where these indicators had been showing an increasing trend in previous years, as a result of the pro-crime policies of Kirchnerism.

Enormous drop in homicides

In this overall context of improvement, intentional homicides also recorded a significant decrease. In 2025, the reduction is 7.3%, while in the last two years the accumulated drop reaches 18.4%. The current rate stands at 3.6 homicides per 100,000 inhabitants, below the 4.4 recorded in 2023 and the 3.9 in 2024.

This Monday, the Government of Javier Milei presented the official data on various crimes during the year 2025, where a strong reduction in thefts and robberies was observed, marking a change in trend after years of growth.

Firstly, both simple and aggravated thefts recorded a significant decrease of 21.6% in 2025, breaking the upward trend that had been consolidated in previous governments.

After reaching values close to 1,015 in 2024, the indicator sharply declined to 796 in 2025, marking the lowest level since the pandemic in 2020, when the country was facing a harsh lockdown.

In the same vein, robberies also show a large decrease. During 2025, a reduction of 17.4% was recorded, both in the number of incidents and in the rate per 100,000 inhabitants.

While in 2024 there were 372,840 cases with a rate of 80.5, in 2025 the numbers dropped to 308,523 incidents and a rate of 66.5. This decline evidences a significant improvement in one of the most frequent crimes that directly impacts the daily lives of the population.
