Fact-checked October 12, 2026

Neighboring areas taken from shared edges in the 2020 NTA file; community district from the NTA's CDTA code (BX03). Playground names from NYC Parks Properties dataset (enfh-gkve), checked against the NTA polygon. Housing figures computed from PLUTO 26v2 residential units, with lots assigned to this NTA through 2020 census tracts (NYC Planning tract-to-NTA codes); building type uses PLUTO building class (C = walk-up, D = elevator, A/B = one- and two-family). Subway stations placed by point-in-polygon test of MTA station coordinates against the 2020 NTA boundary (data.cityofnewyork.us 9nt8-h7nd); 'just outside' means within about 150 m of the edge. Re-verified 2026-10-12: recomputed every PLUTO 26v2 share from the raw lots (2020 tract-to-NTA codes from data.cityofnewyork.us 63ge-mke6) and re-ran the station point-in-polygon test against the 2020 NTA file. Neighbors, CDTA BX03, playgrounds (NYC Parks enfh-gkve polygons) and the 462 m distance to 174-175 Sts confirmed.
