Historical context · 1930s redlining

HOLC grade: D: Hazardous (Redlined)

This tract sits within an area graded by the Home Owners' Loan Corporation in the 1930s. Grade D meant Black, immigrant, and poor neighborhoods systematically denied mortgage credit. These designations suppressed minority homeownership for generations and remain a documented predictor of present-day eviction filings and rent burden.

Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Beverwyck

Against Albany County at 42.1%, 77% of renters here are cost-burdened. Annualized rent equals 55% of average household income of $25,322, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with.

Against the Albany County average of 6.9, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 3.0 points. The score leans hardest on economic stress at 10/10. The poverty rate is 51%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

Food insecurity runs 39.6% against 17.8% nationally. 86% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby.

Housing insecurity runs 29.0% against 14.2% nationally. On the high side, local political climate reads 8/10.

Running hot, rent-regulation exposure reads 7.5/10. This ground was mapped D ("Hazardous") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Albany. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above.

That is riskier than roughly 100% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Social vulnerability reads 9.7/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.
