I Lol no whoever told you this is full of shiit. Maybe 30 years ago Times Square and Hells Kitchen were dangerous. Now they are very safe and nice areas. The most dangerous areas of the city are the South And West Bronx, and Brownsville Brooklyn.
Statisticaly Times Square and midtown are the most dangerous parts of Manhattan. It has to due with all the stupid drunk bridge and tunnel crowd coming into the city to get wasted. Also all the tourists that are ripe for a mugging.
Check the NYC crime map. Midtown is dark red.
Oh, and Lol just Lol at Times Square being a "nice area." Lol
According to Bloomberg, 4 years ago when he gave a lecture he said NYC is safe you you should feel comfortable to walk anywhere at any time.
Ironically in those 4 years I never heard of him taking a midnight strolls through Brownsville, South Bronx, East Harlem, ect ect ect

Why would he when he lives on the Upper East Side?
NYC has bad neighborhoods, but nowhere that I'd say is too bad to visit, at least in daylight hours, except ENY/Brownsville if you're white or howard beach if you're not.
The stats all say midtown/times square has the most crime, but that's artificial because there are so many people there, many of whom are dumbass tourists.

Go to the Starbucks in Howard Beach. At least half the clientele is not white, and it appears no one is sipping their frappuccino's in any type of fear.
To me not having dangerous areas is a good thing. That means it's more like a European city, like London. Sure, London has a few sketchy areas but it's not like you risk your life stepping foot there. In Detroit or certain parts of Chicago I would venture at all.
Again, if New York is more like London that is a big plus and something to be proud of...crime is nothing to brag about, it's something to be ashamed about. I sense that many hipsters get angry when you tell them they live in a nice city with many respectable citizens. It just isn't very "edgy" and doesn't rhyme with their persona.
Yeah except those are boroughs, not neighborhoods. What drugs do you guys dabble in so I can avoid them at all costs?
Thanks in advance.
Hey dumbass, the OP asked a very generalized question so I gave a very generalized answer. Go take a look at crime stats.
