The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) reports that antisemitic incidents in the United States decline sharply in 2025. According to the ADL, the total number of reported incidents falls by 33%, marking the first year-to-year decrease in five years. Multiple outlets attribute the overall drop largely to a steep reduction in incidents occurring on college and university campuses.
While the ADL highlights the reduction in incident counts, it also cautions that conditions remain serious. The ADL’s national director and CEO, Jonathan Greenblatt, says that although the total number of incidents is lower, 2025 is still among the most violent years for American Jews. This contrast reflects that the reported decrease is especially pronounced in campus settings, even as concerns about violence persist.
The reporting synthesizes the ADL’s national statistics and statements, presenting both the quantified decline in incidents and the ADL’s characterization of ongoing risk and severity.
