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 Revere

The score leans hardest on tenant-organizing strength at 9.1/10. Running cool, supply constraint reads 1.1/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, local political climate reads 8.3/10.

The poverty rate is 23%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. At $1,744 a month, rents run 16% under what the rest of Revere commands.

SNAP participation runs 23.0% against 15.2% nationally. This ground was mapped D ("Hazardous") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Revere. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above.

On the national scale it lands near the 91st percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Social vulnerability reads 6/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Statewide the MA average is 6.2, so this tract runs 1.8 points hotter. 44% of renter households spend at least 30% of income on rent.

It tracks the Suffolk County average of 7.9 closely. Annual rent works out to 25% of average household income of $83,654.

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.
