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 Southover
The score leans hardest on court filing pressure at 9.6/10. Running cool, rent-regulation exposure reads 1/10.
Food insecurity runs 31.8% against 17.8% nationally. SNAP participation runs 28.8% against 15.2% nationally. On the softer side, state political climate reads 2/10.
The poverty rate is 24%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. It sits 1.3 points above the Chatham County average of 4.1. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 85 filings here across 1 tracked years.
At $1,252 a month, rents run 9% under what the rest of Savannah commands. The worst year on record was 2011, when 18.9% 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 18.9% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 70th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.
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.
