New Yorkers are currently experiencing the longest average wait times for police response to crimes, with response times increasing significantly over the past few years.
On average, it now takes NYPD officers 15 minutes and 23 seconds to respond to crimes, marking the slowest response times recorded since the 1990s.
The NYPD's focus on improving response times should include innovative, evidence-based strategies, although current delays have yet to be officially explained.
With the police force the smallest it's been since the 1990s, New York City faces daunting challenges in providing timely emergency responses.
