Neighborhood Stabilization Program (NSP) Activity by Tract

Published by Office of Policy Development and Research, GIS Helpdesk and Open Data Division | Department of Housing and Urban Development | Catalog Last Checked: September 30, 2026 at 03:13 PM | Dataset Last Updated: April 09, 2025 at 09:13 PM
This dataset denotes Neighborhood Stabilization Program (NSP) activity by 2010 U.S. Census Tracts. Congress established the NSP to allow for the purchase and redevelopment of foreclosed and neglected residential properties in an effort to stabilize communities suffering from foreclosures and abandonment. The data offered in this service is derived from an extract of HUD’s Office of Community Planning and Development (CPD) Disaster Recovery Grants Reporting (DRGR) System. Congress established the Neighborhood Stabilization Program (NSP) to allow for the purchase and redevelopment of foreclosed and neglected residential properties in an effort to stabilize communities suffering from foreclosures and abandonment. This service aggregates NSP activity at the 2010 tract-level geography of the U.S. Census. Please note that the data offered in this service is derived from an extract of HUD’s Office of Community Planning and Development (CPD) Disaster Recovery Grants Reporting (DRGR) System. Each observation in the raw DRGR extract is an address at which an NSP activity took place. If multiple activities took place at one address, that address would be in the database multiple times and would over-count NSP activity. This is likely to be the case if a grantee reports the same property under an acquisition activity and a rehab activity. Steps have been taken to mitigate the occurrences of over-counting through the standardization of addresses, the prioritization of activity types for those addresses where more than one activity took place, and then the removal of duplicate addresses. For example, if a grantee reported an acquisition and rehab activity at the same address, the rehab activity will be prioritized over the acquisition, and the acquisition will be removed. Likewise, the data will also over-count NSP activity if grantees enter an activity at a single address in multiple quarterly performance reports; much of this double counting will also be mitigated through the standardization and duplicate removal process. Conversely, if multiple units were assisted at a single address, that address would under-represent NSP activity. This is likely to be the case if a grantee reports a single address that represents a group of properties or a property with multiple units.
