2009 witnessed the lowest number of murders in Japan in the postwar period. Just 1,097 murders were recorded in all of Japan last year.
Compare that to 1954, in which some 3,081 people were murdered in Japan. The total stayed above 2,000 through most of the 1970s.
Even with a slight rise at the end of the 1990s and early 2000s, the number has not hit 1,500 since 1987.
