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

This is renter territory: 97% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. On the high side, court filing pressure reads 8.6/10.

Annualized rent equals 34% of average household income of $74,732, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with. Against Kings County at 49.3%, 41% of renters here are cost-burdened.

17% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Disability prevalence runs 18.1% against 31.5% nationally. Running hot, local political climate reads 8/10.

At $2,114 a month, rents run 16% over what the rest of New York commands. 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. Nationally it ranks #4,119 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 6.8/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Statewide the NY average is 7.7, so this tract runs 1.3 points hotter.

Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured.
