Per a press release from the City of Baltimore, Mayor Brandon M. Scott has announced the release of the 2025 CitiStat Annual Report. This report details the city’s performance management program, CitiStat, which utilizes data to drive improvements in city services and accountability across municipal agencies. The annual report offers a comprehensive overview of progress made throughout 2025, identifies ongoing challenges, and outlines priorities for the coming year. CitiStat aims to enhance the quality of life for Baltimore residents by ensuring safer neighborhoods, cleaner streets, and more dependable city services through a coordinated, data-informed approach.

In a time where local news media coverage seems to be disappearing, your contribution is more important than ever. While our in-depth articles are for supporting members only, we won’t put our core news content behind a paywall, because we believe access to news should be democratized, instead of access for only those who can afford it.
But keeping the lights on and taking the fight to local accountability takes resources. Your monthly subscription directly funds our public records requests, website hosting, and time spent analyzing local government and events so you don’t have to.
We are the only newsroom in Washington County with facts-first focus, locally owned, independent, while keeping our core news content free. Will you help us keep it that way?
The CitiStat program, a pioneering initiative in data-driven performance management, helps city leaders deliver measurable enhancements in service delivery. This is achieved by diligently tracking key performance indicators, pinpointing operational obstacles, and ensuring that actionable steps are taken to address them. The program is guided by four fundamental principles, referred to as the “Four Tenets of Stat”: ensuring timely and accurate information sharing among all stakeholders, facilitating the rapid deployment of resources, implementing effective tactics and strategies, and maintaining a commitment to relentless follow-up and assessment.
By the close of 2025, each principal city agency had its own dedicated Stat session. These include the Baltimore City Fire Department (BCFD), the Baltimore City Health Department (BCHD), the Baltimore City Police Department (BPD), the Department of Finance (DOF), the Department of General Services (DGS), the Department of Housing and Community Development (DHCD), the Department of Public Works (DPW), and the Department of Recreation and Parks (BCRP), as well as the Department of Transportation (DOT). In addition to these agency-specific Stats, Baltimore hosted six additional cross-departmental Stat sessions in 2025: BCIT Stat, Clean Stat, Downtown Stat, Permit Stat, Workplace Safety Stat, and Youth Stat. The report emphasizes that each Stat summary is designed for public accessibility while maintaining data precision.
The CitiStat Annual Report 2025 is available for public viewing online through the Office of Performance and Innovation’s website. Residents can access the full report, which provides a detailed examination of agency performance, persistent issues, and recommended future actions, at the following web address: https://opi.baltimorecity.gov/sites/default/files/citistat-annual-report-2025.pdf. A downloadable print version is also accessible through the same link.
