Historical context · 1930s redlining

HOLC grade: C: Definitely Declining

This tract sits within an area graded by the Home Owners' Loan Corporation in the 1930s. Grade C meant mixed-race / working-class neighborhoods rated as risky. 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 Gravesend

Cost burden runs around two-thirds here against 49.3% across Kings County. The score leans hardest on tenant-organizing strength at 9.8/10.

Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 8.6/10. Food insecurity runs 31.3% against 17.8% nationally. The poverty rate is 26%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

Running cool, supply constraint reads 1.9/10. Court records carry 101 eviction filings across 7 observed years. SNAP participation runs 23.1% against 15.2% nationally.

Against the Kings County average of 9.2, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 0.7 points. Filings peaked in 2000 at 3.3% of renter households.

In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). 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. In a typical year about 2.6% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 100% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

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