The Violence Data Dashboard provides data on violent deaths among Alameda County residents.

The dashboard, which is the first of its kind for Alameda County, provides data on homicides, suicides, and firearm-related deaths over the past 10 years (2015-2024). It reflects deaths of Alameda County residents, based on their residence at the time of death regardless of where the incident occurred. The goal of this dashboard is to inform prevention and intervention efforts to build a county where all residents can live healthy lives, free from violence.

Please take care in reviewing this data: Behind each data point is a life lost to violence, pain experienced by loved ones, and wider community trauma. While numbers alone cannot capture this pain, we hope to honor those affected by illustrating the scope of violence in our county and supporting efforts to reduce violence and promote healing across Alameda County.

Disparities in violent death data are driven by historical and present-day public policy choices and institutional practices that shape inequities in the conditions in which people live, work, learn, and play in Alameda County. These structural inequities limit opportunities and lead to poor health outcomes like violence.
