Overall crime in Portsmouth is trending in the right direction, but the full picture remains complicated as police work on community solutions.

Portsmouth Police Chief Stephen Jenkins presented first-quarter numbers to city leaders, covering January through March of this year, and compared them to the same period in 2025. Total crimes are down more than 5%, and the number of people falling victim to crime dropped by nearly 6%.

"While we continue to see positive trends in our overall crime numbers, there are some challenges that we continue to address as an organization and as a city, and it does require us to remain vigilant," Jenkins said.
