About this data
What does this displacement score mean?
The score is a 0 to 100 index showing where multiple public-record displacement signals are elevated at the ZIP level. Each signal is normalized across all 177 NYC ZIP codes so dense areas are not scored by raw counts alone.
What public records are included?
PulseCities uses NYC public records: DOB building permits, HPD housing violations, 311 housing complaints, executed evictions, ACRIS property deed transfers, HPD building registrations, and MapPLUTO residential unit counts.
Is this a prediction of eviction?
No. PulseCities does not predict individual evictions and is not legal advice. The score shows neighborhood-level public-record indicators that may be worth reviewing.
