Broadway Shows Suffering as High Crime Keeps Tourists Away From New York City
The entertainment industry is suffering in New York City due to the crime problem that has been growing in recent years.
It turns out that tourists don’t like being robbed and assaulted and are therefore avoiding the area. This has got to be costing the city a fortune.
New York is well on its way to becoming what it was like in the 1970s and for anyone who doesn’t remember, it was a dark time for the city.

Broadway Shows Suffering as Suburban Tourists Avoid New York City Due to High Crime
Broadway shows are reportedly taking a financial hit as tourists from the suburbs are increasingly avoiding New York City due to high levels of crime.
New York metro area suburbanites accounted for a mere 14 percent of the overall Broadway ticket sales for the 2022-2023 season — the lowest number on record in the 23 years the Broadway League has tracked such data, according to a New York Post report.
