It's been a looooong time since I visited NYC and always wanted to go back.

Is it true that NYC is getting very dangerous?

Have you been there recently? How safe did you feel?

Would be interesting to hear from those of you that grew up in NYC...and what your thoughts are on this subject. Also I've always been fascinated by the history of NYC so share stories of growing up there please if you would.

TIA
Will probably get a lot of opinions here. Only way to get a true sense is by getting the actual crime statistics and even they do not give an accurate depiction of what is going on. For example if the murder rate is up and most of the murders are family/spousal related, murder rates for others might be going down. We were there last June in the Financial District. Had a great time
