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 Oklahoma City

The score leans hardest on economic stress at 10/10. Food insecurity runs 50.9% against 17.8% nationally.

The poverty rate is 44%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 32.8% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.

Average gross rent is $683, 40% below the Oklahoma City average. On the softer side, rent-regulation exposure reads 1/10.

Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 1/10. Annualized rent equals 35% of average household income of $23,368, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with. Cost burden runs about half here against 41.7% across Oklahoma County.

It sits 1.0 points above the Oklahoma County average of 3.8. This ground was mapped D ("Hazardous") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Oklahoma City. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above. Nationally it ranks #35,669 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

Social vulnerability reads 9.7/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Statewide the OK average is 3.8, so this tract runs 1.0 points hotter.

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