The Fifth Avenue area
includes portions of three census blocks. The area north of Plain
Avenue is part of block 107; the area south of Plain Ave. between
Biehn St., Pleasant St., and Valley Place comprises block 201; and
the small section of the Redevelopment Area to the east of Biehn
Street and south of Plain Ave. lies in block 202. The population
of all three of these blocks decreased by more than half from 1960
to 1990 and is expected to show further decline when then 2000 census
results are available. These blocks are also more racially heterogenous
than New Rochelle as a whole, with nearly 60% of the population
being non-white.
