Historical context · 1930s redlining

HOLC grade: C: Definitely Declining

This tract sits within an area graded by the Home Owners' Loan Corporation in the 1930s. Grade C meant mixed-race / working-class neighborhoods rated as risky. 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 Boulevard Terrace

Food insecurity runs 44.5% against 17.8% nationally. SNAP participation runs 38.8% against 15.2% nationally.

Severe burden reaches 32%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. The poverty rate is 43%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

Against Pulaski County at 42.5%, 57% of renters here are cost-burdened. Set annual rent against average income of $28,176 and the ratio lands at 42%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. Well under the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 1/10.

On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.5/10. It sits 0.8 points above the Pulaski County average of 3.9.

At $988 a month, rents run 11% under what the rest of Little Rock commands. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). 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. Nationally it ranks #37,882 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

Social vulnerability reads 9.5/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.
