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 Omaha

Severe burden reaches 36%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. Housing insecurity runs 32.6% against 14.2% nationally.

This is renter territory: 70% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. Running cool, state political climate reads 1.8/10.

The poverty rate is 27%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Disability prevalence runs 44.0% against 31.5% nationally.

It sits 1.2 points above the Douglas County average of 3.9. Running hot, court filing pressure reads 7.5/10. Court records carry 1,521 eviction filings across 13 observed years.

The worst year on record was 2013, when 17.3% of renter households were served. 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 14.5% of renter households face a filing.

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.
