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 Corlett

The dominant input is economic stress at 10/10. The severe-burden share is 35%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.

Inability to pay a utility bill runs 37.9% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. The poverty rate is 57%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Disability prevalence runs 51.5% against 31.5% nationally.

Running hot, court filing pressure reads 8.2/10. Against the Cuyahoga County average of 4.6, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.4 points. On the softer side, rent-regulation exposure reads 2/10.

Against Cuyahoga County at 43.0%, 49% of renters here are cost-burdened. Court records carry 593 eviction filings across 12 observed years.

The worst year on record was 2007, when 17.4% of renter households were served. This ground was mapped D ("Hazardous") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Cleveland. 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 11.8% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 78% 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.
