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 Happy Hollow

Pulling hardest the other way is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. On the softer side, economic stress reads 1.5/10.

Running cool, state political climate reads 1.8/10. The severe-burden share is 14%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.

It sits 0.9 points below the Douglas County average of 3.9. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 94 filings here across 13 tracked years.

Housing insecurity runs 6.3% against 14.2% nationally. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 4.1% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.

Filings peaked in 2014 at 2.9% of renter households. At $1,089 a month, rents run 8% under what the rest of Omaha commands.

In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground A ("Best"). 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 1.9% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 20th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

Social vulnerability reads 1.5/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

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