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 Queensbridge

The dominant input is tenant-organizing strength at 9.8/10. 85% 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. Against Queens County at 49.8%, 38% of renters here are cost-burdened.

On the high side, court filing pressure reads 8.1/10. The severe-burden share is 17%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.

Running hot, local political climate reads 8/10. The poverty rate is 22%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 146 filings here across 7 tracked years. Filings peaked in 2004 at 5.3% of renter households. This ground was mapped D ("Hazardous") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Queens. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above.

In a typical year about 4.4% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 100% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

Social vulnerability reads 7.4/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Statewide the NY average is 7.7, so this tract runs 2.2 points hotter. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured.

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