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 Borough Park

Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 1/10. Against Kings County at 49.3%, 38% of renters here are cost-burdened. Food insecurity runs 35.3% against 17.8% nationally.

73% 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. Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 8.6/10.

Severe burden reaches 16%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. SNAP participation runs 27.4% against 15.2% nationally.

At $1,428 a month, rents run 22% under what the rest of New York commands. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 105 filings here across 7 tracked years. Against the Kings County average of 9.2, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 0.7 points.

Filings peaked in 2002 at 2.4% of renter households. This ground was mapped D ("Hazardous") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Brooklyn. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
