my daughter lives there and the area is fine .. we live in bay terrace in queens which is one of the nicest areas in queens and we have about the same rate of issues.

for what it would cost to rent in bay terrace they bought a very nice co-op in howard beach and at least own something that potentially can go up . .

are key to keeping neighborhoods isolated and relatively safe for years.This particular crime appears to have been committed by
three banditos residing outside or on the fringes of the community.

Lindenwood 106 Pct = 63 robberies to date - https://www1.nyc.gov/assets/nypd/dow...-us-106pct.pdf


ENY 75 Pct = 327(!) robberies to date - https://www1.nyc.gov/assets/nypd/dow...-us-075pct.pdf


ENY has roughly 5x the number of robberies that Lindenwood does.

There was always an element of Brooklyn in Queens neighborhoods that border it.
