I visited NYC for the first time last September, and it was a very positive experience ! People were friendly, loved Central Park. It was a little overwhelming at times, lots of hustle and bustle, but it probably felt that way because I live in a much smaller area. Did a lot of walking, and used the subway system to get from one end to the other. Really liked hiking thru Manhattan, and had the best pizza I've ever had at a small pizzeria. We also had an early afternoon beer ( pre-rush ), and the bar staff went out of their way to give us tips on things to see and how to get there. And as far as safety, never once felt threatened, and never once had any "sketchy" happenings occur.
