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 Howe

On the high side, tenant-organizing strength reads 8.5/10. Against the Hennepin County average of 5.1, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.8 points.

Severe burden reaches 18%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Running cool, supply constraint reads 1.8/10. Cost burden runs 51% here against 43.1% across Hennepin County.

At $1,143 a month, rents run 17% under what the rest of Minneapolis commands. Court records carry 46 eviction filings across 5 observed years. SNAP participation runs 7.2% against 15.2% nationally.

Food insecurity runs 10.7% against 17.8% nationally. Filings peaked in 2009 at 3.7% of renter households. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground B ("Still Desirable"). 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.

In a typical year about 2.6% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 84% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

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.
