The New York City Police Department Housing Bureau is responsible for providing police services to about 420,000 people living in New York City's public housing projects. They are stationed in Police Service Areas (PSA), which are almost identical to police precincts, with nine PSAs in total located throughout Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, and The Bronx.
Police Officers often conduct interior patrols, making sure illegal activity does not take place in the halls, stairways, or the rooftops. The New York City Housing Authority Police Department was merged with the NYPD, like the New York City Transit Police, in 1995. Similar to police precincts, new police officers who graduate from the police academy are assigned to housing units. Statistics on crimes in NYC Public Housing are posted by the NYPD and are available on-line at:[1]
