For crime statistics for your area (the 19th precinct), go to the NYC.gov site listed below. For a demographic picture of the neighborhood, try putting your address into a site,
http://www.propertyshark.com/mason/, which will give you all kind sof demographic information on the area, including ages, race, income, etc. of your neighborhood. You have to register at Property Shark, but the info is free. I have lived in this neighborhood for over 30 years and raised a daughter here. It is not as interesting as some areas, but it is safe and convenient. If you are a young professional, you will find a lot of others in your category. Good luck.
