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 The Stockade

The clearest offset is economic stress at 1/10. Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 2.2/10. It sits 1.2 points below the Schenectady County average of 6.6.

Food insecurity runs 8.3% against 17.8% nationally. On the high side, state political climate reads 7.3/10. SNAP participation runs 6.9% against 15.2% nationally.

This ground was mapped B ("Still Desirable") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Schenectady. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above. Nationally it ranks #24,859 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 3.4/10. Statewide the NY average is 7.7, so this tract runs 2.3 points cooler.

Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 2%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Average gross rent is $1,077, close to the Scotia average.

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