Though New York City played a central role in the development of early punk rock, the hardcore scene came to New York relatively late compared to other major cities.

The scene has been focused around venues such as the famous CBGBs, ABC No Rio, and Brooklyn's L'amour. CBGB ( Country, Blue Grass, and Blues) was a music club at 315 Bowery at Bleecker Street in the borough of Manhattan ABC No Rio is a Social center located at 156 Rivington street in New York City 's Lower East Side that was founded in 1980 The New York scene was home to most of the early influential youth crew bands, such as Youth of Today, Youth Defense League, Sick of It All, Agnostic Front, Murphy's Law, Gorilla Biscuits, Bold, Side by Side, Warzone, and later bands like Judge.

However, not all bands in the NYHC scene actually reside in the city. Other areas of the scene include suburban Long Island, southern Connecticut and northern New Jersey. In the 2000s, these areas outside the city have become an even bigger hotbed for punk rock, hardcore and their various subgenres than the city of New York.
