Good this neighborhood has sadly changed, overcrowding & shelters, gangs.
Changed? This neighborhood has never been safer. I’ve lived and worked in the area for years and if you think this is bad you have no idea.
Jackson Heights is the best , 20+ years never had a problem walking the streets at any hour . Roosevelt Ave to N.blvd.
112st to 74st
You mean traffic agent. They are not cops, they can not arrest anyone nor do they have any arrest authority.
