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 Near-North
Average gross rent is $407, 70% below the Minneapolis average. The score leans hardest on local political climate at 9/10. Running cool, supply constraint reads 1/10.
Cost burden runs 55% here against 43.1% across Hennepin County. The poverty rate is 31%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Sitting well above the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 8.5/10.
Severe burden reaches 18%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. SNAP participation runs 28.1% against 15.2% nationally. Housing insecurity runs 23.8% against 14.2% nationally.
In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground D ("Hazardous"). 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. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 9.5/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.
Against average income of $39,922, annual rent is just 12%. Statewide the MN average is 4.5, so this tract runs 3.5 points hotter. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
