The standard term for the Mayor of New York City is four years, with a term limit of up to two consecutive terms (eight years total) under the current rules. After serving two consecutive terms, a mayor must sit out a full term before potentially running again. If you're asking about the current or upcoming mayor, note that term limits and any extensions can change through city charter amendments or referendum, so the precise term length applies to the office at the time of the election in question. For the most accurate answer about a specific mayor's term, please specify the name and year of interest.
