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 Jack London Square

The score leans hardest on rent-regulation exposure at 10/10. Average gross rent is $3,043, 54% above the Oakland average. On the high side, local political climate reads 9.7/10.

Running hot, eviction-process difficulty reads 9.5/10. This is renter territory: 71% of occupied units are tenant-occupied.

Food insecurity runs 8.4% against 17.8% nationally. The severe-burden share is 8%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. The voucher gap is 13.5%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

Adults with no health insurance runs 4.3% against 11.3% nationally. Against the Alameda County average of 7.8, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 0.7 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 94% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
