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 Coney Island

Average gross rent is $498, 73% below the New York average. SNAP participation runs 41.1% against 15.2% nationally. Sitting well above the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 9.8/10.

95% 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. The severe-burden share is 30%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. The poverty rate is 41%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

On the softer side, supply constraint reads 1/10. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 20.9% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. Against Kings County at 49.3%, 54% of renters here are cost-burdened.

The filing record is not thin: 3,861 evictions over 7 years of observation. Against the Kings County average of 9.2, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 0.7 points. Filings peaked in 2002 at 57.6% 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.

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.
