Antisemitic Crimes Now Lead NYC Hate Cases
“Confirmed hate crimes increased nearly 12% this quarter citywide. We continue to see that the vast majority of our hate crimes are anti-Semitic in nature.”
New York City is seeing a rise in antisemitic hate crimes even as overall crime declines under Mayor Zohran Mamdani. In the first quarter of 2026, anti-Jewish incidents made up 55 percent of all confirmed hate crimes in the city, a share far out of proportion to the city’s population.
According to NYPD data released this week, total hate crimes climbed from 128 in the first quarter of 2025 to 143 this year, an increase of nearly 12 percent. The concentration is neither marginal nor evenly distributed. Of those 143 cases, 78 were classified as anti-Jewish, making it the largest category by a wide margin.
At a press briefing, NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch underscored how disproportionate that number has become.

“In fact, in the first quarter of 2026, more than half of all confirmed hate crimes are 55% were anti-Semitic despite Jews only making up approximately 10% of the population of New York City.”
The increase is unfolding alongside broader gains city officials are highlighting, creating a split in how the data reads depending on where the focus lies.
“Confirmed hate crimes increased nearly 12% this quarter citywide. We continue to see that the vast majority of our hate crimes are anti-Semitic in nature.”
Mayor Zohran Mamdani pointed to the overall numbers as proof that current policies are working, calling the results “a clear, indisputable story” of progress. Murders fell to 54 in the first quarter, the lowest ever recorded, and major crime dropped 5.3 percent citywide. Those gains are significant, but they do not extend across every category, and the same report shows hate crimes rising at the same time.
Anti-Muslim incidents also increased sharply year over year, though they remain a smaller share of the total, while the largest concentration continues to fall on Jewish New Yorkers. The pattern is not diffuse. It is concentrated in a way that stands out within the broader decline in crime.
The mayor is pointing to falling totals. The data show a crime category moving in the opposite direction, and it is concentrated in one group.

The numbers are likely higher, much higher. the muslim mayor doesn’t consider anti-Jewish incidents to be worthy of report.
How is it that the city attacked by Muslims practicing Islam on 9/11 could vote for a Muslim mayor?
Half the problem is that the main Democratic opposition candidate,, was the corrupt Andrew Cuomo.
Couldn’t have happened if so many stupid people hadn’t voted in NYC!
The headline above represents what the Mayor and government of New York City consider to be a stunning success.
Subotai Bahadur
The more than one million gullible, moronic and dhimmified Dhimmi-crat dupes in NYC who gleefully voted to install a lazy, entitled, silver spoon-fed, private sector-avoiding, Jew-hating and Christian-hating Islamofascist/Muslim supremacist as their mayor, ensured that Jew-hate will continue, in NYC.
Nearly 25 years after the 9/11 Muslim terrorist attacks killed nearly three thousand New Yorkers, NYC Dhimmi-crats saw fit to embrace an utterly despicable Islamofascist/Muslim supremacist whose Jew-hate and hatred of the west is indistinguishable from that of the al-Qaeda terrorists.
For a second I thought that you were also talking about London, Ottawa, Canberra and Aukland. Silly me.
Crimes against Jews, not antisemitic crimes. The headline just makes it more Jewish whining instead of something identifiable as a crime.
Gosh, NYC morphed into 1933 Berlin so.quickly it made my head spin.
