New York City’s two subway stations with the highest number of violent crimes are along the popular 4/5/6 lines that run down Lexington Avenue, according to a report by urban policy think tank Vital City.
Manhattan stops on those lines at 125th Street and Lexington Avenue/59th Street topped a list compiled in the crime analysis, which was published last week. Both stations are major hubs and not the worst on a per-ride basis, however. The greatest risk per passenger tends to be at smaller outlying stations in off-peak hours, Vital City said.
