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 Oliver

SNAP participation runs 38.4% against 15.2% nationally. Food insecurity runs 38.4% against 17.8% nationally.

Severe burden reaches 27%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 1/10.

77% 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. Set annual rent against average income of $40,755 and the ratio lands at 34%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. Sitting well above the midpoint, regional political climate reads 8.8/10.

The poverty rate is 27%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. It sits 1.2 points above the Baltimore City average of 6.8. Against Baltimore City at 50.2%, 55% of renters here are cost-burdened.

At $1,159 a month, rents run 13% under what the rest of Baltimore commands. This ground was mapped D ("Hazardous") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Baltimore. 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.
