Figure demonstrating (A) the size comparison and spatial misalignment between HOLC-graded areas (outlined in black) and Census block groups (2010, outlined in gray), and (B-D) block groups being graded according to population cutoffs of 50%, 90%, and 99%, respectively. Blue areas are grade A, green areas are grade B, yellow areas are grade C, red areas are grade D (“redlined”), dark grey areas are marked as ambiguous (i.e. no grade bin exceeded the threshold), and light grey areas are marked as unclassified (i.e. the unclassified bin exceeded the threshold). White areas are either bodies of water or block groups that did not intersect with HOLC-graded areas
