Bitter cold was the theme of the first week of 2018, with more cold New Yorkers in the past week than in any previous year on record. Actually, the nearly 30,000 complaints during the &#8220;bomb-cyclone&#8221; mean there were about as many cold New Yorkers as there were during the first week of the previous 3 years combined. This cold snap brought in 29,386 complaints, of which <strong>18,567 were unique<\/strong>. Compare that to 8,092 complaints (5,828 unique)\u00a0for the first week of last year. <strong>This brings the 2018 &#8220;Heat Season&#8221; to date (10\/1\/17-1\/8\/18) total to 120,780 complaints (83,161 unique).<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We can\u2019t highlight enough how important this distinction is, as some outlier addresses keep popping up every year. <strong>89-21 Elmhurst Ave has received 1,298 complaints this season, spread across 50 days.<\/strong> This tops the record they set last year when they made 1,222 complaints for the whole heat season, which ends May 31. Surely someone there is really cold, but they\u2019re fuming as they make over 25 complaints per day. 1025 Boynton Avenue also appeared on the top complaint list again with 574 complaints across 75 days (last year they made 430 complaints on 70 different days by January 7th). The top 50 complaint list is below <strong>(fig. 4 below)<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>De-duping helps minimize the effect of potentially malicious or very angry residents. By grouping together same-day calls from the same address that is reduced. We further normalize the data when looking at neighborhoods, by dividing by the number of rental units in a neighborhood (people that own their home and are cold should settle that dispute with their significant other). <strong>The number used when ranking neighborhoods and comparing to Median rents represent unique complaints per 1,000 rental units in a neighborhood.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>With all this in mind, RentHop has analyzed which neighborhoods have the coldest New Yorkers and why. <strong>Here are the key findings from the study:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>A strong correlation was found between rent prices and complaints about lack of heat. the \u2018Normalized Heat Complaints vs Median Rent\u2019 chart demonstrates this <strong>(fig. 1)<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>Erasmus, Brooklyn; Hamilton Heights, Manhattan; and Norwood, Bronx were the top 3 complaint neighborhoods and appeared in the top 5 last year as well <strong>(fig. 2)<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>A side-by-side geographic comparison shows that the same NYC neighborhoods that were problematic for complaints last year are having issues again this year\u00a0<strong>(fig. 3)<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>Nearly half of the addresses receiving the most unique heat complaints this season ranked high last year as well <strong>(fig. 4)<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Heat Complaints for the first week of 2018 set a record<\/strong> and amounted to nearly as many as were received during the previous 3 years\u2019 first weeks combined <strong>(fig. 5)<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>Besides being the worst first week on record, it also ranked as the most complained-about week of any week over the past 3 years, in terms of unique and duplicated calls <strong>(fig. 6)<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Figure 1<\/h3>\n<div class='tableauPlaceholder' id='viz1515630201949' style='position: relative; text-align: center; margin: auto;'><noscript><a href='#'><img alt=' ' src='https:&#47;&#47;public.tableau.com&#47;static&#47;images&#47;ny&#47;nyc_heat_complaints_2018&#47;Dashboard2&#47;1_rss.png' style='border: none' \/><\/a><\/noscript><object class='tableauViz'  style='display:none;'><param name='host_url' value='https%3A%2F%2Fpublic.tableau.com%2F' \/><param name='embed_code_version' value='3' \/><param name='site_root' value='' \/><param name='name' value='nyc_heat_complaints_2018&#47;Dashboard2' \/><param name='tabs' value='no' \/><param name='toolbar' value='yes' \/><param name='static_image' value='https:&#47;&#47;public.tableau.com&#47;static&#47;images&#47;ny&#47;nyc_heat_complaints_2018&#47;Dashboard2&#47;1.png' \/><param name='animate_transition' value='yes' \/><param name='display_static_image' value='yes' \/><param name='display_spinner' value='yes' \/><param name='display_overlay' value='yes' \/><param name='display_count' value='yes' \/><param name='filter' value='publish=yes' \/><\/object><\/div>\n<p>                <script type='text\/javascript'>                    var divElement = document.getElementById('viz1515630201949');                    var vizElement = divElement.getElementsByTagName('object')[0];                    vizElement.style.width='800px';vizElement.style.height='900px';                    var scriptElement = document.createElement('script');                    scriptElement.src = 'https:\/\/public.tableau.com\/javascripts\/api\/viz_v1.js';                    vizElement.parentNode.insertBefore(scriptElement, vizElement);                <\/script><br \/>\nWhen looking at the graph of heat complaints versus median rent, with median rent as the independent variable, we can see clustering of high numbers of complaints where rents are lower. <strong>Complaints are less common as rents rise.<\/strong> While we also see some neighborhoods with both low rents and low complaints, but we don\u2019t see any neighborhoods with high rents and high complaints.

It\u2019s currently sorted by the normalized number of complaints received through 1\/7\/2018, but can be re-sorted on any column. When re-sorting by normalized complaints for this period last year, the top 3 names \u2013 Erasmus, Hamilton Heights, and Norwood \u2013 stay in the top 5.<\/p>\n<p>For the most part, the 10 neighborhoods with the most freezing New Yorkers are the same as last year but in a slightly different order. Rent in these neighborhoods is also well below the NYC median, <i>which hovers around $3,000 for a one-bedroom.<\/i>\u00a0The top 10 neighborhoods all have rents below $2,000, save for Crown Heights.

After some thought though, I realize this means that same people are suffering that were cold last year. <strong>The same landlords in the same areas still aren&#8217;t adequately heating their buildings, and the same Department of Housing isn&#8217;t doing enough to make sure these people aren&#8217;t cold.\u00a0<\/strong>One can only imagine how the person or persons at these addresses making hundreds of calls must feel. Year-after-year, cold and seemingly screaming into the wind for help.<\/p>\n<p>South-Central Brooklyn, Western Bronx and Harlem, Manhattan all appear in the darkest blue, representing the most complaints. Parts of Staten Island showed big percentage increases in their complaint numbers, although their totals have remained relatively low. Old Astoria saw a big jump in complaints as well as Queensboro Hill, Lincoln Square, and Brooklyn Heights. Battery Park City had the biggest drop in complaints (-60%).<\/p>\n<h3>Figure 4<\/h3>\n<div class='tableauPlaceholder' id='viz1515630474813' style='position: relative; text-align: center; margin: auto;'><noscript><a href='#'><img alt=' ' src='https:&#47;&#47;public.tableau.com&#47;static&#47;images&#47;ny&#47;nyc_heat_complaints_2018&#47;Dashboard6&#47;1_rss.png' style='border: none' \/><\/a><\/noscript><object class='tableauViz'  style='display:none;'><param name='host_url' value='https%3A%2F%2Fpublic.tableau.com%2F' \/><param name='embed_code_version' value='3' \/><param name='site_root' value='' \/><param name='name' value='nyc_heat_complaints_2018&#47;Dashboard6' \/><param name='tabs' value='no' \/><param name='toolbar' value='yes' \/><param name='static_image' value='https:&#47;&#47;public.tableau.com&#47;static&#47;images&#47;ny&#47;nyc_heat_complaints_2018&#47;Dashboard6&#47;1.png' \/><param name='animate_transition' value='yes' \/><param name='display_static_image' value='yes' \/><param name='display_spinner' value='yes' \/><param name='display_overlay' value='yes' \/><param name='display_count' value='yes' \/><param name='filter' value='publish=yes' \/><\/object><\/div>\n<p>                <script type='text\/javascript'>                    var divElement = document.getElementById('viz1515630474813');                    var vizElement = divElement.getElementsByTagName('object')[0];                    vizElement.style.minWidth='800px';vizElement.style.maxWidth='1200px';vizElement.style.width='100%';vizElement.style.height='750px';                    var scriptElement = document.createElement('script');                    scriptElement.src = 'https:\/\/public.tableau.com\/javascripts\/api\/viz_v1.js';                    vizElement.parentNode.insertBefore(scriptElement, vizElement);                <\/script><br \/>\nThe table above lists the most complained about addresses, ranked by <strong>unique complaint count, <\/strong>with raw counts as well.
