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 Childs Park

The clearest offset is state political climate at 1.5/10. Well under the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 1.5/10.

Cost burden runs 43% here against 53.4% across Pinellas County. Severe burden reaches 20%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

On the softer side, economic stress reads 1.9/10. Average gross rent is $1,846, 11% above the St. Petersburg average. 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.

Nationally it ranks #57,812 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. Only 19% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 3.2/10.

Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured. It tracks the Pinellas County average of 3.8 closely.

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.
