Data in the past three or four years may indicate that subway crimes have been decelerated or maintained as well, but the same data has increased completely subway violence in the past 10 years. It indicates that you are. Pencilvania.
“Looking at the news article that violence crimes are quite constant, I think it's probably because people have referred to the past few years, but we see violence for a long time. “He told the post.
Violence crimes, including murder, rape, robbery, and assault, have been almost twice as doubled since 2014. Later, about one violent crime occurred per million riders, but in 2024, about 2.5 violent crimes per million strafers occurred. , Chalfin said.
What he felt most attractive in his research is that assault crimes are promoting the increase in subway crimes, and there is no “acquisition motor” behind the attack.
“You see this about murder. In the past, many murderes were motivated by gangs that were fighting illegal markets, and the robbery was wrong, and today most of the murder is a financial motivation. At best, Nexus was a human conflict, such as the connection and very rare. ”
Since 2009, CHALFIN's research has tripled subway attacks while tool crimes such as robbery have decreased.
His data showed a very strong connection between violent crimes, mental health and homeless people.
For some of his research, Chalfin analyzed NYPD data from 2023 to 2024. It indicated that at least one arrest was a violent crime out of those arrested more than four times on the subway. Mental health issues and 90 % were homeless at some point.
“So I think there is something deeper than what is happening in the subway in New York.”
