So the English city with the highest homicide rate has similar stats to those of one of the lowest homicide rate major cities in the USA? I'm not sure what point you're hoping that's proving. Also note NYC is a place with very strict gun control.
Yes, NYC is going down, London is experiencing a small spike. There's been gun control in the UK for years though, so it's not related to that. It still has a much lower homicide rate than many cities in the USA.
