The Citizens Budget Commission contain information on the financial outlook of New York City from the 1930's to the 1990's.

The main purpose of the reports issued by the Citizens Budget Commission is to recommend how New York City, and beginning in 1984 New York State, could save money and better their financial situation. The reports include long-term and short-term studies. The size and complexity of New York City's budget has resulted in a need for continuous revision over the years.

These reports document financial issues of concern from the 1930s to the 1990s.
