Historical context · 1930s redlining

HOLC grade: B: Still Desirable

This tract sits within an area graded by the Home Owners' Loan Corporation in the 1930s. Grade B meant middle-class areas with mortgage access. 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 Greenwich

32% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. SNAP participation runs 32.6% against 15.2% nationally. Running cool, rent-regulation exposure reads 2/10.

The poverty rate is 24%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 20.4% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. Against Wayne County at 46.6%, 53% of renters here are cost-burdened.

On the high side, local political climate reads 7.5/10. It sits 1.0 points above the Wayne County average of 4.6. At $1,234 a month, rents run 15% over what the rest of Detroit commands.

This ground was mapped B ("Still Desirable") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Detroit. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above. Nationally it ranks #22,681 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. Only 24% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.

CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 6.2/10.

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.
