"The Adams administration's North Star has always been public safety. New Yorkers want to be able to send their kids to school, go to work, shop in their local store, go out for dinner, and come home safely to their family and their community. They want to feel safe AND they want to be safe, and this administration has delivered that for them."
"Last week, we released the 2025 third quarter crime data for New York City, which shows that our public safety system is working. From day one, we got to work sweeping out crime and illegal activities from our neighborhoods. Because of this work, we have finished our seventh consecutive quarter of crime reduction. That means for almost two straight years since January 2024 crime has consistently declined each quarter in New York City."
"This new data shows that major crime for the third quarter was down 3.1 percent equating to 1,048 fewer victims of major crime. That's more than 1,000 New Yorkers who did not fall victim to crime because we stayed focused on building a safer city. More specifically, six of the seven major crimes were also down for this quarter, including declines in homicides, robberies, felony assaults, burglaries, grand larcenies, and auto theft."
Public safety remains the administration’s priority, with residents able to travel to school, work, shopping, dining, and home safely.

Six of seven major crimes fell, including homicides, robberies, felony assaults, burglaries, grand larcenies, and auto theft. Major crime also declined in subways and public housing developments. The transit system experienced its safest summer in recorded history when excluding pandemic years, and officials emphasize continued efforts to maintain safety day and night.
