Fewer Violent Crimes at Train Stations in 2024
February 12, 2025
According to a recent report, violent crime at train stations in the United States decreased in 2024 compared to the previous year. The report, released by the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA), shows that there were a total of 1,200 violent crimes reported at train stations in 2024, a 10% decrease from the 1,350 violent crimes reported in 2023.
The report attributes the decrease in violent crime to a number of factors, including increased police presence at train stations, the use of surveillance cameras, and public awareness campaigns.
“We are pleased to see that violent crime at train stations is decreasing,” said FRA Administrator Amit Bose. “This is a testament to the hard work of our law enforcement partners and the public’s vigilance.”
The report found that the most common type of violent crime at train stations was aggravated assault, followed by robbery and sexual assault. The report also found that the majority of violent crimes at train stations occurred during the evening and nighttime hours.
The FRA is urging the public to remain vigilant and to report any suspicious activity to the police. The FRA also recommends that travelers take the following precautions to avoid becoming a victim of crime at train stations:
- Be aware of your surroundings and the people around you.
- Avoid walking alone at night.
- If you see something suspicious, report it to the police.
- Keep your valuables close to you.
- Don’t carry large amounts of cash.
- Be careful about who you trust.
- If you are a victim of a crime, cooperate with the police and report the incident to the FRA.
The FRA is committed to working with law enforcement partners and the public to reduce crime at train stations. The FRA is also working to improve the safety and security of train stations by installing surveillance cameras, increasing police presence, and conducting public awareness campaigns.
