violent crime in Germany

Violent crimes in Germany represent less than 4% of all police crimes, but influence the population's feeling of security more than many other offenses, such as theft or fraud. Around 217,000 violent crimes have been registered in 2024, the highest number since 2007. These developments are worrying because the number of annual victims of violence is now about 260,000. The increase in violent acts since 2021 has been associated with economic uncertainties, social stress and special risk factors, which also underlines the importance of the recent incident in Neustadt. These relationships are documented in the analysis of Statista in detail.

The increasing number of young perpetrators, of whom around a third of the 197,000 suspects were under 21 years old in 2024, may be related to the continuing psychological stress during the pandemic. The incident in Neustadt gives rise to concern and illustrates the need to improve preventive measures and to raise awareness of violence problems in society.
