>The Swedish National Council for Crime Prevention (BRA) said 84 people were killed last year, down from 92 in 2024 and well below the peak in 2020 when 124 people were killed.
0,79 violent deaths per capita. Lowest number since 2012 and since the 1960s before that.
Many seem to attribute this to the new government focusing hard on crime as well as a relatively stable period in organized crime with agreements and peace for the moment.
Hope it stays this way.

Wait… according to right wing media, Sweden is land of underage gang murderers who kill for fun twice a week. They would not be lying to us…

As if homicides would be the only crime which matters

So… does this mean gang violence/crime is also going down in Sweden?
Edit: Glad to hear it

well done Sweden.

But Reddit told me Sweden was destroyed. Maybe there’s nobody left there to commit homicide?

Why?

Don’t let this distract you from the fact that there is a real possibility that we may end up with a racist leader with Nazi roots governing our country after this year’s election, or at best, they may still gain significant influence over the government
The country’s current situation is the most concerning I have experienced in my lifetime. Not the situation you had hoped for as a young adult in a country like Sweden

Wasn’t there a school shooting that year as well? That must boost these numbers even more and therefore real number is even lower.

A main reason is because Sweden finally reigned in their insane immigration and open borders policies. I watched a very good documentary on how they went from letting anyone in and seeing their society erode to finally changing the laws and deporting criminal illegals.

Past week 5 people have been shot. There are periods when people get shot a lot often =politicians take heat for
And there are periods there is calm, nobody is getting killed = politicians take credit for it.
In the end, gang affiliated violence wether shootings or whatever, will always exist.

Another positive note in this stat is that the [number of women killed last year was the lowest ever recorded](https://omni.se/rekordfa-kvinnor-mordades-i-sverige-forra-aret/a/bOOagA).
Finally a rare good headline hope it sticks.
