New Yorkers are experiencing the longest police response times in decades, with NYPD officers taking an average of 15 minutes and 23 seconds to respond to 911 calls regarding crimes in progress in fiscal year 2024. This marks nearly a minute longer than the previous year. The delays come as the NYPD operates with its fewest number of members since 1990, according to the police union. The increased workload, including daily protest responses and additional paperwork, is contributing to the slower response times. Despite a decrease in murders, traffic fatalities have risen, and the NYPD has paid out over $1 billion in overtime for the first time, as reported by Mayor Adams.
