In this new episode, Dr. Idania Rodríguez Ayuso, Deputy Executive Director of the Institute, discusses “The Silence That Precedes Homicide,” as part of the Collective Action for Violence Prevention in Puerto Rico Symposium.
In the second half of 2024, 2,149 domestic violence cases were evaluated in Puerto Rico. The statistic is devastating: 1 in 4 complainants faces an imminent risk of death. Risk assessment is not just a protocol; it is the bridge between a complaint and a protected life. Identifying lethality before it occurs is our collective mission.

Inflation reflects how the prices of goods and services change over time. Analyzing it helps us understand the purchasing power of households in Puerto Rico.
Gross Domestic Product (GDP) measures the total value of goods and services produced in Puerto Rico, regardless of whether the owner or company is local or from another jurisdiction.
This indicator allows for the analysis of the size and performance of economic activity.

El Instituto de Estadísticas de Puerto Rico formó parte de la Reunión de Colaboradores 2026 de la Cruz Roja Americana - Tendiendo Puentes: Avanzando la preparación, respuesta y recuperación en los adultos mayores. Durante la actividad realizada el pasado viernes, 26 de junio de 2026, Alberto L. Velázquez Estrada, Gerente Senior de Proyectos Estadísticos presentó de parte del Instituto de Estadísticas la Radiografía del Adulto Mayor en Puerto Rico.
Diversos apectos sociodemográficos fueron compartidos, así como los cambios en periodos recientes sobre los adultos mayores en Puerto Rico. En este sentido, se promovió la discusión y compresión hacia este grupo poblacional que va en crecimiento en nuestra jurisdicción, en torno a la respuesta en situaciones de emergencia. Accede a la copia de la presentación compartida en el documento a la derecha de esta sección.
El Instituto de Estadísticas de Puerto Rico presenta la nueva versión de la Calculadora del Índice de Costo de Vida (COLI), una herramienta interactiva diseñada para facilitar la comparación del costo de vida entre el Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA) de San Juan–Bayamón–Caguas y aproximadamente 300 áreas urbanas de los Estados Unidos. La nueva versión incorpora una interfaz más moderna e intuitiva, mejorando la experiencia del usuario y facilitando el análisis de las diferencias en el costo de vida entre distintas regiones.
Esta nueva versión integra los datos publicados en el Informe del Índice de Costo de Vida correspondiente al primer trimestre de 2026, permitiendo a los usuarios realizar comparaciones utilizando la información oficial más reciente disponible para el área metropolitana de San Juan–Bayamón–Caguas y las demás áreas participantes del informe.
La calculadora permite comparar el costo de vida entre diferentes Metropolitan Statistical Areas (MSA), una clasificación geográfica oficial utilizada por las agencias estadísticas federales de los Estados Unidos. Las MSA están compuestas por un área urbana con una población de al menos 50,000 habitantes, junto con las áreas limítrofes que mantienen un alto grado de integración económica y social, principalmente medida mediante los patrones de desplazamiento al trabajo.
Desde el año 2015, el Instituto de Estadísticas de Puerto Rico produce el Índice de Costo de Vida (COLI) para el MSA de San Juan–Bayamón–Caguas, convirtiéndose en la fuente oficial de estas estadísticas para Puerto Rico. La publicación trimestral del informe permite que Puerto Rico forme parte de una red de aproximadamente 300 áreas urbanas de los Estados Unidos, haciendo posible realizar comparaciones metodológicamente consistentes del costo de vida entre Puerto Rico y otras jurisdicciones.
La calculadora permite comparar tanto el índice compuesto como las principales categorías, incluyendo vivienda, alimentos, transportación, cuidado de la salud, servicios públicos y bienes y servicios misceláneos. Asimismo, permite estimar el ingreso equivalente necesario para mantener un nivel de vida similar al mudarse entre distintas áreas metropolitanas, convirtiéndose en una herramienta de utilidad para ciudadanos, empresas, investigadores, universidades y agencias gubernamentales que requieren información confiable para la toma de decisiones.
Con esta nueva versión, desde el Instituto reafirmamos el compromiso con el desarrollo de herramientas innovadoras que acerquen las estadísticas oficiales a la ciudadanía y promuevan un mayor acceso a información económica de calidad. Invitamos a los usuarios a consultar el más reciente Informe del Índice de Costo de Vida y a utilizar la nueva calculadora para conocer cómo se compara el costo de vida del área metropolitana de San Juan–Bayamón–Caguas con el de aproximadamente 300 áreas metropolitanas de los Estados Unidos.

The Puerto Rico Violent Death Reporting System (PRVDRS), affiliated with the Puerto Rico Institute of Statistics, published today its most recent informative bulletin detailing preliminary data on violent deaths that occurred in the archipelago between January and March 2026.
First Quarter (Q1) Summary
During these first 90 days of the year, a total of 167 violent deaths were preliminarily registered. This represents an average of approximately two violent deaths per day (1.8). The system defines a violent death as one caused by the intentional use of physical force or power against oneself (suicides), another person, or against a group or community (homicides).
Findings on Homicides
70.0% of the violent deaths registered in this period (117 cases) were homicides. Regarding the demographic profile, it stands out that 97% of the victims were men, with the population aged 20 to 39 being the most affected (for both men and women). Firearms remained the primary instrument, used in 93.0% of the reported homicides.
Findings on Suicides
23.0% of the violent deaths corresponded to suicides, for a total of 38 cases. Approximately 8 out of 10 of these victims were men. The 40 to 59 age group accounted for half of the cases (50.0%). During this first quarter, the overall suicide rate stood at 1.2 per 100,000 inhabitants.
About the PRVDRS
Established in 2016 with the support of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the PRVDRS collects and consolidates data from the Institute of Forensic Sciences, the Puerto Rico Police Department, and the Demographic Registry. This provides a clear and precise view of violence in the archipelago to help formulate informed prevention strategies.
