HOLC grade: D: Hazardous (Redlined)

These designations suppressed minority homeownership for generations and remain a documented predictor of present-day eviction filings and rent burden.

Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Georgia Avenue
Pulling hardest the other way is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. On the softer side, supply constraint reads 1/10. 73% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby.
35% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, lower than the Mobile County average of 43.6%. Running cool, state political climate reads 1.8/10.
The poverty rate is 25%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Against the Mobile County average of 4.0, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 0.9 points. Court records carry 125 eviction filings across 10 observed years.
The worst year on record was 2001, when 4.9% of renter households were served. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground D ("Hazardous"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today.
In a typical year about 2.6% of renter households face a filing.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
