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 Grey Oaks

Average gross rent is $2,500, 40% above the Yonkers average. What pushes it up most is eviction-process difficulty at 9/10. Against Westchester County at 47.2%, 36% of renters here are cost-burdened.

Running hot, rent-regulation exposure reads 8.5/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, housing-court posture reads 8.5/10. Against the Westchester County average of 7.8, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 0.9 points.

SNAP participation runs 8.2% against 15.2% nationally. This ground was mapped C ("Definitely Declining") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Lower Westchester Co. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above.

That is riskier than roughly 94% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. At 9% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 3.1/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Statewide the NY average is 7.7, so this tract runs 1.0 points hotter.

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.
