Historical context · 1930s redlining

HOLC grade: C: Definitely Declining

Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Maywood

The main counterweight is economic stress at 1.2/10. On the high side, court filing pressure reads 7.9/10.

SNAP participation runs 5.3% against 15.2% nationally. The filing record is not thin: 265 evictions over 5 years of observation.

Food insecurity runs 10.7% against 17.8% nationally. Filings peaked in 2018 at 8.9% of renter households.

In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). 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 7.1% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 80% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 5/10. Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

Rent takes 30% or more of income for 48% of renters.
