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 Lincoln Park

Against Wayne County at 46.6%, roughly one in three of renters here are cost-burdened. At $1,241 a month, rents run 21% over what the rest of Lincoln Park commands.

The severe-burden share is 13%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. On the high side, housing-court posture reads 7.4/10.

Against the Wayne County average of 4.6, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.0 points. Running cool, eviction-process difficulty reads 2.7/10. 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 33% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Only 16% 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 4.8/10. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured.

Annual rent works out to 19% of average household income of $78,834.

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