Fact-checked October 12, 2026

Re-verified 2026-10-12. Neighborhood list matches the NYC Planning Community Profiles data for district 204. Housing shares re-run against PLUTO 26v2 (sum of unitsres for cd=204: class A/B = one- and two-family, C = walk-up, D = elevator, R = condominium; pre-1940 = yearbuilt 1-1939; tall = numfloors 20+; NYCHA = owner of record NYC Housing Authority, which excludes PACT conversions); all quoted shares match to the rounded percent. Subway stops re-checked by point-in-polygon of MTA Subway Stations coordinates against the DCP community district boundary (5crt-au7u); stations within about 100 m of the line are described as on the edge. Boundary streets checked by measuring how much of each named street's centerline (CSCL) runs along the official district boundary; Wikipedia boundary text was not relied on. Park names, acreage and community boards from NYC Parks Properties (enfh-gkve).

“Open” counts every HPD violation not yet recorded as corrected, including old ones owners never certified, so totals can exceed the number of apartments. Statistics: NYC Open Data (HPD violations, 311 service requests, DCP PLUTO) and rent-stabilized counts from DOF tax bills (via JustFix), updated Oct 16, 2026. Heat season runs October 1 to May 31; season-to-date counts compare the same dates.
