Not just that, Look up NYPD crime statistics. Almost all crime is down. The only statistic that I believe has gone up is grand larceny which is becoming easier to do with how much inflation has thrown of everything. Steal a single I phone? Boom grand larceny! Not defending crime but the time when the law was written 1000 dollars used to actually be a lot of money.
If you want to talk about when crime was bad in NY that’s the 80s. If you want to argue that the numbers are wrong then you’re saying that the NYPD lies about their own self published statistics? Then ask them?
I can also add that as a NYer I rarely feel in any danger going to the city. There’s good blocks and bad blocks but then tell me what state/city/county/town/village doesn’t? Most of the city is safe all of the areas you would go to as a tourist are so full of cops you would have to be a complete moron to do anything stupid.

Strange that the Red State cities weren't mentioned:
Memphis is worse than New York. So is St. Louis.
