Isla de Pascua

Isla de Pascua (Valparaíso region) carries a high level of reported incidence — rank null of 346 communes nationally — but CEAD data reveal a declining trend that has been consistent over recent years. The 2025 figure reached 8,591.8 incidents per 100,000 inhabitants.

Isla de Pascua is one of the communes that make up the Valparaíso region. Within the region, it holds regional rank null, a position that reflects its incidence level relative to other communes in the same administrative area. Regional comparisons are particularly relevant because they account for shared socioeconomic conditions, urban density patterns, and local reporting infrastructure that may influence measured incidence across the region.

Compared with the per-capita national mean across Chilean communes, Isla de Pascua registers reported incidence that is moderately above average — roughly 48% higher than the mean in 2025. While this signals elevated reported activity relative to the national baseline, the rate also reflects factors specific to the commune's urban context and population density.

Within Valparaíso, Isla de Pascua registers reported incidence moderately above the regional per-capita mean — roughly 33% higher in 2025. The commune's position within its region reflects both absolute incidence levels and the distribution of reported activity across other Valparaíso communes.

In 2025, the leading category in Isla de Pascua's reported crime profile was crimes against persons, which accounted for the largest share of total reported incidents. The second most prevalent category was domestic violence. This composition reflects Isla de Pascua's particular urban and socioeconomic characteristics. The CEAD breakdown covers seven crime families: crimes against persons, property crimes, violent robbery, public-order incidents, domestic violence, drug-related offenses, and weapons offenses. The relative weight of each category in the total rate is visible in the incidence-by-category chart above.

A useful reference point for contextualizing Isla de Pascua's data is Quintero (Valparaíso), identified as the nearest comparable commune within the same region based on reported incidence. In 2025, Quintero recorded approximately 8,070 incidents per 100,000 inhabitants, compared with 8,591.8 for Isla de Pascua. Because Isla de Pascua has a small resident population, its rate is statistically volatile, so this comparison is offered as the nearest available reference rather than a claim of shared incidence tier. Quintero holds national rank 20 of 346.

Note: this commune has a small resident population. As a result, the rate per 100,000 inhabitants is statistically sensitive to small variations in absolute event counts. Year-on-year fluctuations may reflect statistical volatility rather than real changes in underlying trends. This commune is excluded from national rankings for this reason. Comparisons with national or regional averages should be interpreted with this caveat in mind.

Looking at the full CEAD time series, Isla de Pascua recorded 9,509.8 incidents per 100,000 inhabitants in 2005. Since then, the reported rate has decreased, reaching 8,591.8 in 2025. The multi-year series is displayed in the sparkline chart above, which shows annual values from 2005 through 2025. The most recent year of partial data (if available) is shown at reduced opacity to indicate that the figure is not yet complete. Year-on-year fluctuations are normal and can reflect changes in recording practices, population estimates, or law enforcement priorities rather than changes in underlying behavior.

The data presented here are sourced from CEAD (Centro de Estudios y Análisis del Delito), the official Chilean body that compiles police-reported crime statistics. All figures represent reported incidents — actual incidence may differ due to under-reporting, which varies by crime type and territory. The 2025 rate of 8,591.8 incidents per 100,000 inhabitants for Isla de Pascua reflects the most recent complete annual data available at the time of this publication.
