Public hygiene offences declined in 2025, reaching their lowest level in at least five years, according to official data released by the Municipal Affairs Institute (IAM). Authorities recorded 16,102 violations of public health and hygiene regulations during the year, representing a 9.2% decrease compared with 2024. The figures show that improper disposal of solid waste remained the most common offence in public spaces, accounting for more than half of all recorded cases. While solid waste disposal remained prevalent, the number of air-conditioner water drip cases fell sharply, marking the lowest level since records began in 2020. Since 2020, the total number of recorded hygiene violations has gradually declined, following peaks of over 19,000 cases in 2020 and 2021.
