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 Lake Minnequa

Pulling hardest the other way is supply constraint at 2.2/10. 40% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, lower than the Pueblo County average of 48.2%. Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 7.2/10.

The poverty rate is 19%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. At $903 a month, rents run 17% under what the rest of Pueblo commands. Adults with no health insurance runs 20.0% against 11.3% nationally.

It sits 0.7 points above the Pueblo County average of 4.4. This ground was mapped B ("Still Desirable") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Pueblo. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above. On the national scale it lands near the 63rd percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 8.6/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured.

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.
