Historical context · 1930s redlining

HOLC grade: C: Definitely Declining

This tract sits within an area graded by the Home Owners' Loan Corporation in the 1930s. Grade C meant mixed-race / working-class neighborhoods rated as risky. 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 Skyview Village

It sits 2.8 points above the Plymouth County average of 5.2. The main counterweight is supply constraint at 1/10. Running hot, tenant-organizing strength reads 8.5/10.

On the high side, rent-regulation exposure reads 7.8/10. SNAP participation runs 26.3% against 15.2% nationally. Cost burden runs 41% here against 46.6% across Plymouth County.

The severe-burden share is 9%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). 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 91% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 7.3/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Against average income of $51,738, annual rent is just 8%.

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