Why NYC keeps getting safer despite Mamdani and Albany

Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch — backed by the NYPD rank and file — deserves all the credit for New York City’s continued crime drop.

Every law-abiding New Yorker should applaud her for achieving new lows in major crime — with murders hitting an all-time low in April. 

The city saw just 19 homicides last month, beating the record of 21 set in 2014 and 2017; year-to-date in 2026 it’s just 76 murders, besting the prior low for the first four months of 86, set in 2018.
