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 Coney Island

SNAP participation runs 41.8% against 15.2% nationally. What pushes it up most is tenant-organizing strength at 9.8/10. 94% 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, economic stress reads 9.4/10. The poverty rate is 38%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

Running cool, supply constraint reads 1/10. Housing insecurity runs 28.2% against 14.2% nationally.

The severe-burden share is 17%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 6,403 filings here across 7 tracked years. It sits 0.7 points above the Kings County average of 9.2.

The worst year on record was 2002, when 59.5% of renter households were served. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground D ("Hazardous"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
