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 Sylvania

At $745 a month, rents run 31% under what the rest of Sylvania commands. Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 2.1/10. Against Lucas County at 41.3%, 49% of renters here are cost-burdened.

14% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. It sits 1.2 points below the Lucas County average of 4.2.

On the softer side, state political climate reads 2.4/10. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 407 filings here across 15 tracked years. Filings peaked in 2009 at 9.9% 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 5.9% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #67,219 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

At 22% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
