Ozone Park is a neighborhood in the southwestern section of the New York City borough of Queens, New York, United States. It is next to the Aqueduct Racetrack in South Ozone Park, a popular spot for Thoroughbred racing and home to the Resorts World Casino & Hotel. Home to a large Italian-American population, Ozone Park has also grown in recent decades to have many residents of Caribbean, Hispanic, and Asian backgrounds.[5]

While New York City neighborhoods do not have formal boundaries, Ozone Park is considered to have a northern border at Atlantic Avenue; the southern border is North Conduit Avenue, the western border is the Brooklyn/Queens border line;[a] and the eastern border is up to 108th Street and Aqueduct Racetrack.[7]

Ozone Park is in two community districts, divided by Liberty and 103rd Avenues.[b] The southern half of the neighborhood is in Queens Community District 10,[2] which is covered by New York City Police Department's 106th Precinct,[8] while the northern half is in Queens Community District 9[1] and covered by the NYPD's 102nd Precinct.[9] Its ZIP Codes are 11416 and 11417.[1][2][10]
