PARK SLOPE, BROOKLYN — A Brooklyn stop in Park Slope is a favorite among subway perverts on the F line — the train New Yorkers are most likely to be flashed on, according to NYPD data obtained by the New York Post.

The F line had the city's highest number of reports of public lewdness and exposure of a person last year with 24 complaints at stations served exclusively by the F train out of the 376 reports for the entire system in 2017, according to transit data reviewed by The Post.

Some 60 complaints were filed at stations where the F train stops. Park Slope's Fourth Avenue–Ninth Street station was the most popular spot for pervy F-train riders, with five complaints in 2017.
