About this data

What does this displacement score mean?

Brownsville scores 54.7 out of 100, which is high displacement pressure. The score is a rank against the other 176 scored NYC ZIP codes rather than a count, so it says where 11233 stands against the rest of the city, not how many households moved. Its strongest signal here is LLC property acquisitions, at 72.6 on the same 0 to 100 scale.

What public records are included?

DOB building permits, HPD housing violations, 311 housing complaints, executed evictions, ACRIS property deed transfers, HPD building registrations and MapPLUTO residential unit counts. For 11233 the past 365 days hold 278 residential building permits and 216 executed evictions, with 2,741 class B and C housing violations in the past 90 days. Deeds arrive on the city register's own schedule, so the deed figure covers the 365 days to September 29, 2026, the most recent day ACRIS has published: 111 deed transfers to companies.

Is this a prediction of eviction?

No. The score ranks this ZIP against the rest of the city on records already filed. It doesn't predict evictions, for a building or for the neighborhood.
