From 2023 through 2025, police recorded 273,483 crashes in New York City. 77% of them have a borough on the report; the rest were filed without one.
Bigger boroughs naturally record more crashes, so compare the injury rate as well as the totals. Open a borough for its yearly trend, peak hours, causes and the streets and ZIP codes with the most crashes.

How to read these figures
Each figure counts crashes that an NYPD officer reported on the MV-104AN form, which is required when someone is injured or killed or when damage reaches $1,000. One crash can injure several people, so injuries can exceed crashes.
Police do not record the borough or ZIP code for every crash — about 23% of crashes citywide in the same years have no borough — so local totals are a floor, not an exact count. The contributing factor is the one listed for the first vehicle in the report.
