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
Park only in attended open-air lots, not in parking garages. There are a couple of decent ones near Lincoln Center, around/on West End Avenue. From there you can walk a couple of blocks toward Central Park and take the subway or a bus wherever you want to go - or walk it. I always walked, from West End and 60th to Greenwich Village via Fashion (5th) Ave, then took the cross-town bus back uptown to Lincoln Center again. But that's a long walk.
