- New York City's declining public school enrollment projected to lose over 150K more as population declines
New York City's public school enrollment is projected to decline by over 150,000 students in the next decade, with all five boroughs expected to lose students due to falling birth rates and an aging population. The city has already lost 117,000 students since the 2019-2020 school year. This decline mirrors a broader trend of enrollment declines in major cities across the country.
