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 Greenpoint

Average gross rent is $3,501, 92% above the New York average. The score leans hardest on tenant-organizing strength at 9.8/10. Disability prevalence runs 12.5% against 31.5% nationally.

Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 1.1/10. This is renter territory: 75% of occupied units are tenant-occupied.

Running hot, court filing pressure reads 8.6/10. The voucher gap is 25.9%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. Severe burden reaches 14%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

Food insecurity runs 7.2% against 17.8% nationally. It sits 1.0 points below the Kings County average of 9.2. The filing record is not thin: 59 evictions over 7 years of observation.

Filings peaked in 2000 at 3.7% of renter households. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground D ("Hazardous"). 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 2.3% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 92% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.
