"New York saw a reported 1,160 antisemitic incidents in 2025, marking a significant 19% decline compared to the previous year, according to the Anti-Defamation League's annual audit of the hateful activity released on Wednesday."
"While it is difficult to pinpoint reasons for the decline, the trend occurred as several institutions and agencies in NYC launched programs aimed at stopping hate attacks, including the city's Office to Combat Antisemitism."
"Even so, the 30 hate crimes against Jewish people reported in April 2026 represented 60% of all hate crimes reported that month to police, highlighting ongoing concerns."
"New York accounted for 44% of all antisemitic assaults documented nationally, with physical assaults increasing from 82 in 2024 to 90 in 2025, the highest number ever recorded."
In 2025, New York experienced a 19% decline in antisemitic incidents, totaling 1,160, according to the ADL. This decline coincided with the launch of initiatives aimed at combating hate, including the Office to Combat Antisemitism. Despite the decrease, New York still led the nation in antisemitic incidents, with physical assaults rising to a record 90. The NYPD reported a 35% decrease in total hate crimes, but antisemitic incidents accounted for 60% of reported hate crimes in April 2026. The overall situation remains concerning for many New Yorkers.
