How New York City compares with other cities
In 2025 the FBI counted 660 violent crimes per 100,000 residents in New York City (New York: 368, United States: 329).
Property crimes: 2,300 per 100,000 residents (New York: 1,567, United States: 1,552).
The FBI counts offenses differently from the city data behind the levels, so the totals do not match exactly.
How to read this
- It shows crime reported to the police. Many crimes are never reported.
- Levels compare areas within New York City. The same level in another city does not mean the same.
- It is not a prediction, and it says nothing about any person or building.
- Please do not use it for decisions about housing, lending, insurance or employment.
- The NYPD publishes complaint data quarterly, so the most recent months can be missing.
