Bogotá crime and security trends

Overview

A report from ProBogotá Región regarding the 2025 Integral Security Index in Localities highlights a discrepancy in Bogotá’s security landscape. While public perception of safety in neighborhoods rose by 29% and positive ratings for National Police services increased by 37%, actual crime victimization rose by an average of 11%.

Localities such as Fontibón, Usaquén, and Usme showed higher security index scores, whereas Antonio Nariño ranked lowest.

In the Alcalá sector, residents have reported a surge in residential thefts involving suspects allegedly using master keys to enter homes quickly. Authorities have urged citizens to report suspicious activity as investigations continue.
