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 Ocean Hill

93% 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. Against Kings County at 49.3%, 36% of renters here are cost-burdened. On the softer side, supply constraint reads 1/10.

At $1,236 a month, rents run 32% under what the rest of New York commands. The severe-burden share is 23%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 8.6/10.

SNAP participation runs 28.2% against 15.2% nationally. The poverty rate is 25%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. The filing record is not thin: 1,772 evictions over 7 years of observation.

Inability to pay a utility bill runs 16.8% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. It sits 0.7 points above the Kings County average of 9.2. Filings peaked in 2005 at 34.7% of renter households.

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