reports indicate that more than 140,000 migrants and asylum seekers have come to NYC in the last 18 months stretching the city's ability to handle this beyond its limits

one report I saw indicated that on average 500 new migrants are now coming to NYC every day

many are from Venezuela which is racked by poverty, crime and political corruption - I saw a report stating that 90% of Venezuelans are living in poverty and 60% are living in extreme poverty

another report I saw quoted Mayor Adams as saying the crisis could destroy the city

the New York Times link is the best if you're not blocked by the paywall - I get by the paywall by googling the headline - I can get 2 free articles per day
