As per GN0SIS's comment suggestions:

*How to track progress*
From the level select menu, you can determine if you have rescued the civilian on that level. When you "hover" over a level you will see a Lego head next to the circle. It will either be a smiley face (you rescued them) or a frown face (you haven't rescued them). Remember vehicle levels don't have civilians to rescue.

*Note for Co-Op players*
If play the game with a friend, be careful when approaching a rescue. This achievement only unlocks if *you* rescue the civilian. But the game will track it (for the 100% stat) if either person rescues them.

If you rescue all 25/25 civilians and the achievement doesn't unlock you can still get this achievement. Reply the levels and rescue the civilians, then save and exit. Continue until you fine the level you didn't do yourself.

I thought I was affected by the coop issue even though I have no memory of ever playing this game in coop. Turns out I was missing a civilian in one of the vilain levels. I still don't get why you'd want to save a civilian as a vilain but ok I guess.

Lots of pages have locations for all civilians. You can see which levels you've rescued in by looking for the mini-fig head on the map while hovering above a mission. Smiling figure means rescued, sad face means not rescued.

Just be warned - if you play co-op and your friend does the last rescue it will not unlock the achievement. But it will count up the x/25 count. If you do any rescue with player one after that, it will unlock. You do get the option to buy the last character though.

Glad to be of service. Also good to see that Batman still gets played. It's getting old, but it's still a great little game.

I love this game. Its one of the few games that my 10 year old and I can enjoy together. Gonna get him a few more of the lego games this christmas.

Although the other guides do a great job of showing you where to find the civilians, I felt I needed to elaborate a little on a GLITCH that keeps this achievement from popping.

If you play in Co-op, make sure that you rescue ALL the civilians using Player 1, otherwise the achievement may not unlock. Some forum users report that even if you save some of the civilians using Player 2, you can unlock the achievement by replaying the levels and saving the civilians with Player 1, but I can't confirm.

I can, however, confirm that even if this achievement glitches for you, it won't prevent you from scoring the 100% Completion achievement, which unlocks as normal.

Why is everyone banging on about co-op play. it's not needed, All you need to do is replay levels with different characters that can access the areas where the civilians are- simple.

I played most of the game in co-op and the achievement did not unlock when we rescued the last civilian. I started re-rescueing the civilians in single player hoping it would unlock the achievement, it didn't and I pretty much gave up on it. Then something strange happened, the achievement unlocked randomly while I was playing co-op in freeplay. I didn't rescue anyone when it happened so I'm not sure what triggered it.

It's not a glitch but is intentional. Like a lot of other achievements in other Lego games, achievements that aren't directly related to the save file are tracked for each player and their respective profile. I guess the mistake part here is that it's tracked for each player even though it's related to the save file.
