New York City has spent over $5 billion addressing the migrant crisis since mid-2022, with costs projected to double by 2025. The city has provided housing, food, and medical care to over 200,000 migrants, with housing alone costing nearly $2 billion. Significant expenses include $2 billion on services and supplies, $500 million on IT and administrative costs, and $21 million on public safety by the NYPD. The city has converted hotels into emergency shelters and set up over 200 impromptu shelters due to space shortages. Mayor Eric Adams’ administration foresees the total expenditure reaching $10 billion by June 2025, highlighting the immense financial strain on the city.
