- ADL recorded 6,274 anti-Semitic incidents in the U.S. in 2025, a 33% decrease from 2024 but still the third-highest total since tracking began in 1979.
- The total included 4,003 harassment incidents, 2,068 vandalism incidents, and 203 assaults.
- Physical assaults reached a record high, with three people killed in anti-Semitic attacks.
- Campus incidents dropped 66%, from 1,694 in 2024 to 583 in 2025, largely due to the decline of anti-Israel encampments.
- Incidents at Jewish institutions fell 34%, while bomb threats dropped sharply from 627 in 2024 to 59 in 2025.
- Israel- or Zionism-related incidents accounted for 2,847 incidents, or 45% of the total, still far above pre-Oct. 7 levels.
- White supremacist anti-Semitic propaganda and events declined 51%, though groups such as Patriot Front, Goyim Defense League, and White Lives Matter remained active.
- The states with the most incidents were New York, California, and New Jersey.
- ADL called for stronger federal and state security grants, safe access protections for houses of worship, and improved institutional responses in higher education and K-12 schools.
