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 Peoria

What pushes it up most is economic stress at 10/10. The poverty rate is 51%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

Housing insecurity runs 37.3% against 14.2% nationally. Set annual rent against average income of $22,449 and the ratio lands at 42%, above the conventional 30% ceiling.

Disability prevalence runs 48.8% against 31.5% nationally. 65% 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.

Running cool, rent-regulation exposure reads 2/10. Average gross rent is $783, 22% below the Peoria average. It sits 1.1 points above the Peoria County average of 4.3.

Cost burden runs about half here against 45.5% across Peoria County. Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 2.8/10.

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. That is riskier than roughly 70% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

Social vulnerability reads 9.4/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Of its three components the household composition measure is the most pressured.
