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 Sequoyah

25% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.5/10.

Food insecurity runs 32.0% against 17.8% nationally. The poverty rate is 23%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Against the Tulsa County average of 3.7, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.1 points.

Running cool, eviction-process difficulty reads 2.5/10. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 17.5% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.

This ground was mapped C ("Definitely Declining") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Tulsa. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above. That is riskier than roughly 58% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 9.1/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Statewide the OK average is 3.8, so this tract runs 1.0 points hotter.

Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the most pressured. Rent takes 30% or more of income for 42% of renters.

Average gross rent is $973, close to the Tulsa average.

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.
