The Mapping Inequality dataset on PolicyMap comprises of neighborhood risk assessment data for 148 cities across the US. The Federal Home Loan Bank Board (FHLBB), the HOLC’s parent organization, commissioned the City Survey Program in 1935 to collect data on real estate risk levels across 239 cities. As part of the exercise, each neighborhood was evaluated via a network of realtors, lenders, developers, and HOLC staff members, and ultimately assigned a rating or letter grade which signified the neighborhood’s investment prospects for lending. The rating was primarily a function of neighborhood racial and ethnic makeup, housing conditions, and access to public facilities, among other factors.

The Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act is the largest investment in climate resilience in U.S. history. The $1.2 trillion in funding will create transformative opportunities for local governments that own and maintain most of the nation’s infrastructure, but first state and federal agencies must ensure the resources get to the places that need it the most. To help identify communities that need support but may lack staff and expertise to compete for federal funding, we have created a first-of-its-kind Rural Capacity Map.
