Historical context · 1930s redlining

HOLC grade: C: Definitely Declining

This tract sits within an area graded by the Home Owners' Loan Corporation in the 1930s. Grade C meant mixed-race / working-class neighborhoods rated as risky. 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 Brighton Beach

The score leans hardest on tenant-organizing strength at 9.8/10. 62% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, markedly above the Kings County average of 49.3%.

Set annual rent against average income of $48,278 and the ratio lands at 40%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. On the softer side, supply constraint reads 1/10. 80% 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.

On the high side, court filing pressure reads 8.6/10. The poverty rate is 29%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

Food insecurity runs 30.0% against 17.8% nationally. SNAP participation runs 25.7% against 15.2% nationally. The filing record is not thin: 219 evictions over 7 years of observation.

Against the Kings County average of 9.2, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 0.7 points. Average gross rent is $1,623, 11% below the New York average.

Filings peaked in 2000 at 3.2% of renter households.
