Historical context · 1930s redlining

HOLC grade: B: Still Desirable

This tract sits within an area graded by the Home Owners' Loan Corporation in the 1930s. Grade B meant middle-class areas with mortgage access. 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 Brighton

Against Onondaga County at 43.5%, 79% of renters here are cost-burdened. The score leans hardest on economic stress at 10/10.

Food insecurity runs 47.1% against 17.8% nationally. The poverty rate is 55%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

It sits 2.5 points above the Onondaga County average of 6.6. Set annual rent against average income of $32,426 and the ratio lands at 42%, above the conventional 30% ceiling.

Inability to pay a utility bill runs 29.2% 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.

Sitting well above the midpoint, local political climate reads 7/10. At $1,124 a month, rents run 8% over what the rest of Syracuse commands.

In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground B ("Still Desirable"). 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 95th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Social vulnerability reads 8.3/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Statewide the NY average is 7.7, so this tract runs 1.4 points hotter. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the most pressured.

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