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 Borough Park

Food insecurity runs 37.0% against 17.8% nationally. 25% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

On the softer side, supply constraint reads 1.3/10. This is renter territory: 72% of occupied units are tenant-occupied.

Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 8.6/10. 42% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, lower than the Kings County average of 49.3%. The poverty rate is 24%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

Housing insecurity runs 24.1% against 14.2% nationally. Court records carry 106 eviction filings across 7 observed years. It sits 0.7 points above the Kings County average of 9.2.

Filings peaked in 2003 at 4.6% of renter households. This ground was mapped D ("Hazardous") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Brooklyn. 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 3.3% of renter households face a filing.

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.
