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 Chickasaw Place

Annualized rent equals 35% of average household income of $36,154, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with. Running cool, state political climate reads 1.5/10.

68% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. Severe burden reaches 17%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

Well under the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 2/10. Food insecurity runs 28.3% against 17.8% nationally.

The poverty rate is 20%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Housing insecurity runs 22.7% against 14.2% nationally.

Against the Pulaski County average of 3.9, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 0.6 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 51% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 8.4/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the most pressured.

All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
