According to reports, there have been over 5,700 odor complaints so far this year, an all-time high.
The summer heat tends to stir up NYC's stinkier side, and this year, it seems like the Big Apple smells more rotten than ever, as odor complaints in the city are reportedly at an all-time high. So why do so many New Yorkers think the streets stink?That's how onedescribed the Big Apple, which could easily be described as the "Rotten Apple" as outdoor odor complaints are up throughout the city.
"Folks see our investment in sanitation, the city has to be clean and I'm seeing the city get cleaner and cleaner," said Mayor Eric Adams on Friday, adding, "Maybe I have a New York nose--I'm not smelling the filth.
But many New Yorkers are quick to point out the city has always smelled--especially in the summer and on the subway. "I love the city but the city is not one of its strong points," said one New Yorker FOX 5 NY spoke with, while another added, "It always smells though, it’s part of the charm."
