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 Denver

What pushes it up most is local political climate at 9/10. 72% 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.

Sitting well above the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 8.5/10. The poverty rate is 29%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Running cool, supply constraint reads 1.6/10.

Against the Denver County average of 6.7, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.5 points. 53% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, above the Denver County average of 45.4%.

Average gross rent is $1,407, 23% below the Denver average. Adults with no health insurance runs 20.1% against 11.3% nationally.

Court records carry 1,308 eviction filings across 8 observed years. Filings peaked in 2014 at 10.3% of renter households.

This ground was mapped C ("Definitely Declining") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Denver. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
