Map: NYC Neighborhoods With The Most Parking Tickets

NEW YORK, NY — In a handy new list and accompanying interactive map that double as a where-not-to-park guides for NYC, the data crunchers over at RentHop have ranked the city's neighborhoods based on how many parking tickets were handed out in each last year.

The numbers were pulled from online city records and divided up by NYPD precinct. Only parking tickets slapped onto cars with passenger plates were factored in, so as to rule out commercial and government vehicles, RentHop said.

As in years prior, the Upper East Side — aka, the 19th police precinct — won for 2016's most-ticketed NYC neighborhood with 238,338 tickets, the data showed.

That's nearly $20 million in parking tickets.

Per capita, though, the precinct covering Times Square was the worst place to park, with 6.2 tickets issued per resident in 2016.

RentHop's analysis also looked at which neighborhoods saw a rise in parking tickets last year compared to the year prior.

Stuyvesant Heights, or the eastern half of Bed-Stuy, lead the pack with a 5 percent spike in tickets — an especially significant rise considering that overall, 15 percent fewer tickets were issued citywide in 2016 than in 2015.

Some more interesting takeaways:

• Although your average Manhattan resident is much less likely to have a car than residents in other boroughs, Manhattanites are much more likely to receive parking tickets. The average car-owning Manhattan household received 10.6 parking tickets last year.

• Brooklyn was the second most-ticketed borough. Car-owning households in Brooklyn received an average of 4.3 tickets in 2016.

• Queens households, a whopping 62 percent of whom own vehicles, received an average of 2.8 tickets last year.

• "Staten Island is the place to live if you have a car and don’t want to live in New Jersey," according to RentHop. "Over 83% over households in Staten Island have a car and they average just .64 tickets per year."
