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 Tremé

The dominant input is regional political climate at 8.4/10. Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 1.6/10. The severe-burden share is 18%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.

The poverty rate is 27%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Sitting well above the midpoint, local political climate reads 8/10.

At $975 a month, rents run 22% under what the rest of New Orleans commands. It sits 1.1 points above the Orleans Parish average of 5.4. SNAP participation runs 24.7% against 15.2% nationally.

Food insecurity runs 27.3% against 17.8% nationally. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 224 filings here across 8 tracked years. Filings peaked in 2006 at 11.2% of renter households.

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 6.7% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 82% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Social vulnerability reads 7.6/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
