Having visited Manhattan several times in the last couple of years, I have to say that it does feel like a police state being there. In some senses it's great, because you don't have to worry so much about crime as much, but it also speaks to the police state that NYC and the rest of the US is turning into.
So I'm not surprised that crime has fallen, given the sheer number of police officers present.
