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

What pushes it up most is economic stress at 10/10. Adults with no health insurance runs 37.9% against 11.3% nationally. The poverty rate is 47%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

Inability to pay a utility bill runs 29.1% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. On the softer side, rent-regulation exposure reads 1/10. Against Oklahoma County at 41.7%, 54% of renters here are cost-burdened.

Set annual rent against average income of $28,688 and the ratio lands at 34%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. At $801 a month, rents run 29% under what the rest of Oklahoma City commands. Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.5/10.

Against the Oklahoma County average of 3.8, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.0 points. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground D ("Hazardous"). 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.

That is riskier than roughly 58% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 9.1/10.

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.
