Wow check this out. New York City just wrapped up the safest first 10 months of any year on record according to the latest NYPD numbers. Murders dropped to 230 and shooting incidents hit 536 with only 649 victims. Those are the lowest figures the city has ever seen for that stretch of the calendar. Major crime overall fell by more than six percent citywide too. Cops and officials are pointing to steady street work and focused enforcement as big reasons behind the drop.
Feels good to see the numbers moving in the right direction for once. What do you think about this shift in the city?
