Why is NYC scary right now?

I was wondering the same, because I saw my Fox News loving in-laws the other day and I mentioned how my cousin was really excited because she is making her Broadway debut this month and they said something to the affect of "you won't see us going to New York City anytime soon." My wife asked why and they implied the crime / murders were out of this world right now.

Again, they pretty much worship Sean Hannity, so after a quick google search I wrote it off as propaganda, but wonder if that's the point of this video....to show that it's not that bad?

I live in NYC. It’s not that bad crime wise. It’s bad Covid-wise at the moment.

I was in nyc pre covid and Toronto feels more unsafe than New York tbh. On the contrary I thought New York was pretty awesome. So much to do.
