Historical context · 1930s redlining

HOLC grade: C: Definitely Declining

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 Dogpatch

16% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Running hot, court filing pressure reads 7.7/10.

It sits 1.2 points below the Mahoning County average of 4.5. On the softer side, state political climate reads 2.4/10. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 77 filings here across 7 tracked years.

Filings peaked in 2013 at 3.2% of renter households. This ground was mapped C ("Definitely Declining") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Youngstown. 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 2.4% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 27% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. At 23% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 3.7/10.

Statewide the OH average is 4.2, so this tract runs 0.9 points cooler.
