A surprising new study from rental agency RentHop found that evictions in New York City overall have dropped by 9.6 percent over the last year. The study also found that the rate of evictions have declined in every single borough, and that evictions tend to be concentrated in the same neighborhoods each year.

The interactive map is color-coded: the redder the area, the higher number of evictions happening in that neighborhood. The analysis was performed based on data taken from NYC Open Data for evictions in 2018 through 2019, specifically from January 1 to March 11.  

Despite the fact that overall evictions have decreased, some areas are still experiencing higher or increased eviction numbers. For North Bushwick, the interactive map shows that the count of evictions—cases where physical eviction occurred—actually increased from 15 cases to 20 cases this year.
