Historical context · 1930s redlining

HOLC grade: A: Best

This tract sits within an area graded by the Home Owners' Loan Corporation in the 1930s. Grade A meant wealthy, predominantly white neighborhoods favored for lending. 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 Hillsdale

The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. 87% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. Running cool, supply constraint reads 1/10.

Severe burden reaches 24%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. The poverty rate is 26%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.8/10.

Against the Lancaster County average of 3.8, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.2 points. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 1,794 filings here across 14 tracked years. Food insecurity runs 25.8% against 17.8% nationally.

SNAP participation runs 23.0% against 15.2% nationally. The worst year on record was 2012, when 6.8% of renter households were served. 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.

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