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 Maxwell

What pushes it up most is economic stress at 9.2/10. The poverty rate is 37%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

Well under the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 1/10. Severe burden reaches 22%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

Housing insecurity runs 31.3% against 14.2% nationally. On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.5/10.

Against the Tulsa County average of 3.7, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.1 points. At $891 a month, rents run 15% under what the rest of Tulsa commands.

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. 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.
