New York City is forking out an average of $387 per day to put up a single migrant household in taxpayer-funded shelters, the latest data from City Hall show.
That number — known as the “cumulative per diem” — is the average of what the city has spent to house and feed each migrant household per day every month since the start of the crisis in spring 2022.
The daily bill has slowly been dropping as the city desperately continues to try and slash asylum-seeker spending amid the ongoing crisis, with about 64,800 migrants in its care as of last week.
The $387 for February was down $5 from October 2023, when there were about 65,400 migrants in city care. The cumulative average began to go down steadily that month, hitting $391 in November, $390 in December and $388 in January.

$387 per day for doing nothing. Nice work if you can get it.
If things were reversed, a Dem TX governor and a GOP President who opened the border, the TX Gov would be sending increasingly more and more right up to November. Keep it in the news, make it the issue it is, make it so people cannot NOT notice it.
There is going to be blowback...eventually.
And it might be bad.....
Lots of room in Gracie Mansion to house at least a couple hundred at no additional cost to NYC.
Hey New York folks ... elections have consequences.
$387.00 per invader X 64,800 invaders = $25,077,600.00
PER DAY!!!
Native NY voters are getting SO shafted. But I bet most of them are patting themselves on the back, feeling so good about themselves, helping those “less fortunate”...
This will be forever as long as they are here.
They are invaders, consumers and criminals, nothing more and will always be.

Let’s see... $387 x 3 = $1,161. Even when splurging on family vacations the three of us never spent anywhere near $1,161 per day. That’s ridiculous.
LOL!!!
That could pay for airfare back to the commie hellhole they voted in that destroyed their country.
About the only time I ever spent $387 or more in a day is when I bought a vehicle, real-estate or precious metals. (or make my monthly supply run with Bidenflation prices these days).
I don’t think I ever spent that much in a day even on vacation, back in the old days when I took the occasional vacation.
Illegal Aliens are costing New Yorkers $9.1 BILLION per year.
So far. It's increasing.
Most of those people probably lived somewhat comfortably on five dollars a day back where they came from.
We could save lots of money just giving them a fifty dollars a day to stay home and live like the middle class of their homeland..
—”$387 per day for doing nothing. Nice work if you can get it.”
That is on the cheap.
Wait until highly contagious measles pops up.
Just warming up in Chicago among the illegals.
NYC deserves this... and more.
White liberal elites with their virtue signaling and BS caused all this to happen. New York ‘elites’ should be banned from moving to rad states.
There is no legal obligation for Federal, State or local governments to provide financial assistance to those claiming asylum. Democrats are using our tax dollars to curry favor with them to increase their vote totals.
The Marxist Dems probably figure that is a bargain price per each new Dem voter.
