New York ranks third on a list accounting for the number of hate groups operating across the nation.
That's according to a new report by the Southern Poverty Law Center which indicates there are 44 organizations operating throughout New York State.
The non-profit legal advocacy group says that includes an anti-Muslim assembly, a neo-Nazi Party, and the Loyal White Knights of the Ku Klux Klan.
New York's high rank is due in part to the over a dozen skinhead groups that have built headquarters within the state.
California and Florida top the list.
New Jersey is also ranked third with 40 groups operating out of the state.
