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 Hillside

The score leans hardest on tenant-organizing strength at 9.8/10. On the softer side, supply constraint reads 1/10. Housing insecurity runs 27.8% against 14.2% nationally.

Severe burden reaches 16%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Running hot, court filing pressure reads 8.1/10. SNAP participation runs 27.9% against 15.2% nationally.

Court records carry 526 eviction filings across 7 observed years. Average gross rent is $1,602, 12% below the New York average. Filings peaked in 2001 at 16.5% 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 14.0% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 100% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

Social vulnerability reads 8/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.
