Historical context · 1930s redlining

HOLC grade: C: Definitely Declining

This tract sits within an area graded by the Home Owners' Loan Corporation in the 1930s. Grade C meant mixed-race / working-class neighborhoods rated as risky. 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 Morris Park

What pushes it up most is tenant-organizing strength at 9.8/10. Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 1.5/10.

Food insecurity runs 31.2% against 17.8% nationally. Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 8.1/10. The severe-burden share is 16%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.

The filing record is not thin: 111 evictions over 7 years of observation. SNAP participation runs 22.4% against 15.2% nationally. Filings peaked in 2016 at 7.1% 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 3.4% of renter households face a filing.

On the national scale it lands near the 100th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

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