Historical context · 1930s redlining

HOLC grade: D: Hazardous (Redlined)

This tract sits within an area graded by the Home Owners' Loan Corporation in the 1930s. Grade D meant Black, immigrant, and poor neighborhoods systematically denied mortgage credit. 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 Miracle Mile

Well under the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.9/10. It sits 1.4 points above the Clark County average of 4.2.

The poverty rate is 25%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. On the high side, court filing pressure reads 8/10.

Cost burden runs 47% here against 39.6% across Clark County. 11% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Court records carry 161 eviction filings across 6 observed years.

The worst year on record was 2003, when 7.3% of renter households were served. This ground was mapped D ("Hazardous") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Springfield. 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 6.4% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 73% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

Social vulnerability reads 6.2/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

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