Safety is a daily system: patrols, cameras, response times, courts, and community reporting. What happens in one borough can ripple across the city by nightfall. We track operations and outcomes—not just incidents—to show what’s changing and why.
Risk isn’t uniform. Transit hubs, nightlife corridors, cash-heavy zones, and under-lit blocks behave differently from residential streets. Policies, staffing, and maintenance shape whether problems shrink or just move.
Our coverage follows alerts, deployments, investigations, court filings, and the data that should underpin all of it—keeping victims’ privacy and public interest front and center.
