It depends on what data is present in OSM. For example, there’s Manhattan [Manhattan, New York - CityStrides](https://citystrides.com/cities/171333) (admin level 7) and then there’s also its Community Boards e.g. [Manhattan Community Board 1, New York - CityStrides](https://citystrides.com/cities/1601) (admin level 8).  
Queens exists at admin level 7 [Relation: ‪Queens‬ (‪9691819‬) | OpenStreetMap](https://www.openstreetmap.org/relation/9691819) but I haven’t been able to find any admin levels below that within Queens…
