Bronx, New York Addiction and Treatment
More than 2 million New Yorkers are currently suffering from some type of substance abuse and many of those are minors. Alcohol abuse, in particular, is prevalent among those underage. As a result of the high prices and regulation of prescription drugs, many New Yorkers turn to heroin instead. This has led to a serious heroin epidemic in the state.
The Bronx sings with a vibrant arts scene, from museums and mansions to gardens and theaters. Yet its song turns somber: in 2020, the Bronx led NYC in overdose deaths at 48 per 100,000 residents. Opioid overdoses have soared, with fentanyl driving 80% of NYC's fatalities in 2021.
