Bronx CD10 — Throgs Neck / Co-op City produced the month's sharpest signal: a burglary spike that outpaced every other tracked movement in New York this briefing. Aggravated assault in Brooklyn CD2 — Brooklyn Heights / Fort Greene had held the top position the prior month, and that category remains active across multiple neighborhoods — but burglary in the Bronx is the lead this time.
Citywide volume is down 3.3% against the prior 12 months — 277,553 incidents against 287,124 — a continued but modest decline. The signal mix leans toward upward movement: 39 spikes and 56 sustained-shift signals against 26 below-trend readings across 59 neighborhoods. Queens CD3 — Jackson Heights / East Elmhurst appears twice in the top five, with both aggravated assault and burglary running above trend there.
With 122 total signals and spikes outnumbering drops by a wide margin, February 2025 is not a quiet month. The burglary pattern in Throgs Neck / Co-op City is a single-month reading — it hasn't yet established the duration that would mark it as a sustained shift — so March data will clarify whether this is an isolated move or the start of a longer run.
Sustained drops worth naming
No sustained-shift signals this month — every category sits within its trailing-year range.
