Historical context · 1930s redlining

HOLC grade: D: Hazardous (Redlined)

This tract sits within an area graded by the Home Owners' Loan Corporation in the 1930s. Grade D meant Black, immigrant, and poor neighborhoods systematically denied mortgage credit. 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 Pittsburgh

Average gross rent is $955, 44% below the Atlanta average. What pushes it up most is court filing pressure at 9.6/10.

Against Fulton County at 46.8%, 59% of renters here are cost-burdened. Running cool, supply constraint reads 1/10. Food insecurity runs 35.1% against 17.8% nationally.

67% 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. Well under the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 1.5/10. The poverty rate is 28%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

Against the Fulton County average of 4.2, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.5 points. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 20.5% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.

Court records carry 661 eviction filings across 5 observed years. Filings peaked in 2015 at 40.5% of renter households.

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.
