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 Strawberry Mansion

The poverty rate is 28%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. On the high side, regional political climate reads 8.2/10.

It sits 1.2 points above the Philadelphia County average of 6.6. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 257 filings here across 4 tracked years. Average gross rent is $1,224, 12% below the Philadelphia average.

The worst year on record was 2010, when 15.1% of renter households were served. This ground was mapped D ("Hazardous") 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 12.7% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 89% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

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.
