Historical context · 1930s redlining

HOLC grade: C: Definitely Declining

Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Woodlawn

On the softer side, economic stress reads 1.3/10. On the high side, rent-regulation exposure reads 8.5/10.

Against the Westchester County average of 7.8, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.4 points. Severe burden reaches 10%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. 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.

Nationally it ranks #3,529 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. Social vulnerability reads 4.6/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Statewide the NY average is 7.7, so this tract runs 1.5 points hotter. Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.

Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. 49% of renter households spend at least 30% of income on rent.

Average gross rent is $1,909, close to the Yonkers average. Annual rent works out to 22% of average household income of $104,191.

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