Crime continues to be atop the minds of New Yorkers, with one recent poll finding a significant majority of residents being fearful they will become another victim.
The poll comes even as the NYPD recently reported significant drops in murders and shootings during the first half of 2023, and small decreases in other major crimes such as burglaries and robberies.
