LIC’s population grew 40% between 2010 and 2020 (5x faster than the growth rate for NYC) and jobs in LIC grew 2x as fast as compared to NYC overall. Foot traffic along Jackson Avenue — one of the major commercial corridors — has increased by more than 300% since 2007 and the LIC Business Improvement District welcomed 30 new businesses in 2024 alone.
