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 Belmont

Annualized rent equals 92% of average household income of $17,598, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with. What pushes it up most is economic stress at 10/10.

SNAP participation runs 56.2% against 15.2% nationally. Cost burden runs roughly three in four here against 56.0% across Bronx County.

The poverty rate is 61%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. On the high side, tenant-organizing strength reads 9.8/10. 96% 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, court filing pressure reads 9.6/10. Average gross rent is $1,346, 26% below the New York average.

Disability prevalence runs 45.2% against 31.5% nationally. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 2,365 filings here across 8 tracked years. The worst year on record was 2016, when 21.3% of renter households were served.

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