Historical context · 1930s redlining

HOLC grade: B: Still Desirable

This tract sits within an area graded by the Home Owners' Loan Corporation in the 1930s. Grade B meant middle-class areas with mortgage access. 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 Juniata

The severe-burden share is 36%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Pulling hardest the other way is supply constraint at 1/10. At $972 a month, rents run 30% under what the rest of Philadelphia commands.

The poverty rate is 32%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Running hot, court filing pressure reads 8.2/10.

Sitting well above the midpoint, regional political climate reads 8.2/10. It sits 1.4 points above the Philadelphia County average of 6.6. Court records carry 290 eviction filings across 4 observed years.

Filings peaked in 2011 at 5.3% of renter households. This ground was mapped B ("Still Desirable") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Philadelphia. 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 5.8% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 91% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Social vulnerability reads 9.4/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Statewide the PA average is 4.6, so this tract runs 3.4 points hotter.

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.
