First of all, there aren't any Italian neighborhoods left in Manhattan. The only ethnic neighborhood left in Manhattan is Washington Heights, which is Dominican.

Second of all, the wiseguys pulled out of Little Italy and East Harlem as far back as the '90s.

Third of all, the crime rate in Manhattan is at a hundred year low.

But thanks for posting.


These people I spoke to where from different areas of nyc where the mob no longer held a great presence
