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 H.J.B. Industrial Park

At $779 a month, rents run 28% under what the rest of Lincoln commands. This is renter territory: 68% of occupied units are tenant-occupied.

Running cool, state political climate reads 1.8/10. The severe-burden share is 17%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 1.9/10.

The poverty rate is 24%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. It sits 1.2 points above the Lancaster County average of 3.8. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 718 filings here across 14 tracked years.

Filings peaked in 2013 at 6.5% of renter households. This ground was mapped B ("Still Desirable") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Lincoln. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above. In a typical year about 4.6% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 61% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

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