A city of 30,000, and its been the most violent city in the state per capita for the past few years.. The area east of 9W especially near the hospital is a complete warzone. Its the worst neighborhood Ive seen in my life.
In terms of most dangerous neighborhood in NY, I think pretty much everybody could agree that it is probably somewhere on the East Side of Buffalo. In terms of city as a whole, I guess Newburgh, although crime rates are obviously taken into account because you really can't accurately compare cities with different populations. It's hard to compare a city of 30K to one of 50K, let alone 260K like Buffalo.
are you serious about newburgh ive walked around there no problem ive grown up on saratoga off lyell ave. ive seen *****s find out about a pedophile on the block, and they threw him out of the second story window and nobody calls the cop. i saw a body float up next to me on the canal when i was a little kid. i recently saw someone get shot in front of me on main and jefferson. and some kid just got murdered for his shoes yesterday. ive been to newburgh its not all that bad. rochester police was accused of not reporting murders. look up the ny times article. ****s not always what it seems and personelly i love growing up in this hell its my home. and if a pedophile walks down the street he should get shot and put off as a missing person. because if ur scum get killed and burn in hell. long live rochester, 585 ****s.
I guess your friends have been slacking considering that neighborhood has one of the highest sex offender per capita rates in New York.

a city that can barely have over 10 murders a year is no war zone.
That's hard to say. The borough of Queens has Far Rockaway, which I unfortunately live ten or less minutes away from... and Bronx is well, the Bronx. Harlem has to be the crappiest place in the country.
Since I actually been to Far Rockaway a few times, there are a lot of ghettos and projects. Stores close VERY early (I believe 3pm-4pm?) and completly closed down too. Cops are everywhere, crack houses, subpar apartment housing {or just downright disgusting}, the Peninsula hospital closed down and graffiti all over the place.
I believe members of the ms13 is there, too. My mother and I are deathly afraid to even drive through it. Very unfortunate.
As for Harlem, I only saw pictures and boy it really gives off a third-world feel.
I'm really suprised no one brought those two places up. Sure they're not cities and located in boroughs, but they're definitely dangerous and ****ty.
Also I never heard of Buffalo being dangerous? That place always came off as boring to me. Then again to be far, I don't know much about Upstate. Just the island and especially the Queens borough near me.
Just for the record, here are the 2011 violent crime rates for some NY cities, and the change in violent crime in the city through the first 6 months of 2012. These are the cities included in New York states Operation Impact.

Ah, so these are cities that aren't boroughs of NYC. As for non-NYC and state-wise, I have no idea. But I'm still very suprised that Buffalo is up there.

Nevermind~
As for downstate counties,
Bronx........881 Kings.........722 New York...566 Queens......460 Richmond...303
The point is, OP asked for city in NY - not borough of NYC, and not neighborhood within a city. So taking every city in the state into account, the simple answer would probably NYC. And since the question was a far too simple question to answer, only a ridiculously simple answer will suffice.

LOL, but then that makes everything more complicated. In total volume of crimes...yes, NYC obviously, but in crime rate, NYC is pretty low. I guess, in terms of entire city, It would be Newburgh, since the land area is so much smaller. Making the entire city closer to the really bad neighborhoods.
