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 Convention District

The score leans hardest on local political climate at 7.5/10. Running hot, eviction-process difficulty reads 7.5/10.

Inability to pay a utility bill runs 19.9% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. On the high side, state political climate reads 7.3/10.

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. On the national scale it lands near the 83rd percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Statewide the NY average is 7.7, so this tract runs 1.0 points cooler.

Model confidence here is 30%, lower than typical because some ACS inputs for this tract carry wide margins of error, so read the score as a band, not a point. It tracks the Monroe County average of 7.2 closely.

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