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

Average gross rent is $1,596, 56% above the Lincoln Park average. What pushes it up most is court filing pressure at 9.7/10.

56% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, higher than the Wayne County average of 46.6%. The poverty rate is 22%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

On the high side, housing-court posture reads 7.4/10. On the softer side, eviction-process difficulty reads 2.7/10. The voucher gap is 15.8%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

SNAP participation runs 22.7% against 15.2% nationally. 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.

On the national scale it lands near the 53rd percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. At 23% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 5.7/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured.

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