Things to know

  • Watch your bag

    280 property felonies within 500 m over the last 12 months, mostly grand larceny — typical of busy commercial blocks with heavy daytime footfall.

Reported crime is counted within 500 m over 12 months, from NYPD complaint data, and split into violent and property offences because busy commercial blocks record far more theft than quiet residential ones. We don’t reduce a neighborhood to a single score, and no apartment is ever hidden from you based on its area. Checked 15 days ago.
