Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Marcy-Holmes
This is renter territory: 98% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. What pushes it up most is local political climate at 9/10. 56% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, markedly above the Hennepin County average of 43.1%.
Severe burden reaches 23%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Running hot, tenant-organizing strength reads 8.5/10. Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 1.7/10.
Average gross rent is $1,127, 18% below the Minneapolis average. 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 91st percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 6.4/10.
Statewide the MN average is 4.5, so this tract runs 3.5 points hotter. Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.
All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
