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 High Bridge

The score leans hardest on economic stress at 10/10. Housing insecurity runs 41.0% against 14.2% nationally. Food insecurity runs 50.7% against 17.8% nationally.

Cost burden runs 72% here against 56.0% across Bronx County. Annualized rent equals 50% of average household income of $36,218, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with.

100% 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, tenant-organizing strength reads 9.8/10. The poverty rate is 43%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

On the high side, court filing pressure reads 9.6/10. Average gross rent is $1,496, 18% below the New York average. The filing record is not thin: 2,288 evictions over 8 years of observation.

The worst year on record was 2016, when 27.5% of renter households were served.

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.
