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 East Flatbush

Annualized rent equals 103% of average household income of $12,132, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with. What pushes it up most is economic stress at 10/10.

Food insecurity runs 57.3% against 17.8% nationally. Housing insecurity runs 39.1% against 14.2% nationally.

The poverty rate is 67%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Average gross rent is $1,044, 43% below the New York average. 100% 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.

Running hot, tenant-organizing strength reads 9.8/10. On the softer side, supply constraint reads 1/10.

57% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, above the Kings County average of 49.3%. Court records carry 6 eviction filings across 5 observed years. It sits 0.7 points above the Kings County average of 9.2.

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. On the national scale it lands near the 100th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

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