Historical context · 1930s redlining

HOLC grade: A: Best

This tract sits within an area graded by the Home Owners' Loan Corporation in the 1930s. Grade A meant wealthy, predominantly white neighborhoods favored for lending. 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 Westside

Severe burden reaches 34%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. The poverty rate is 58%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Against the Broome County average of 6.7, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 2.6 points.

Running hot, tenant-organizing strength reads 9.5/10. Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 1/10.

This is renter territory: 66% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. SNAP participation runs 29.2% against 15.2% nationally.

At $704 a month, rents run 19% under what the rest of Binghamton commands. Food insecurity runs 26.2% against 17.8% nationally. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground A ("Best"). 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.

That is riskier than roughly 96% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Social vulnerability reads 5.9/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Statewide the NY average is 7.7, so this tract runs 1.6 points hotter. Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured. roughly one in two of renter households spend at least 30% of income on rent.

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.
