Historical context · 1930s redlining

HOLC grade: C: Definitely Declining

This tract sits within an area graded by the Home Owners' Loan Corporation in the 1930s. Grade C meant mixed-race / working-class neighborhoods rated as risky. 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 Live Oak

On the softer side, rent-regulation exposure reads 1.5/10. Running cool, supply constraint reads 2/10.

At $1,389 a month, rents run 16% under what the rest of St. Petersburg commands. The filing record is not thin: 709 evictions over 18 years of observation. Filings peaked in 2000 at 8.8% of renter households.

In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). 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. In a typical year about 5.9% of renter households face a filing.

On the national scale it lands near the 33rd percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. At 24% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 6.1/10.

Rent takes 30% or more of income for 50% of renters. It tracks the Pinellas County average of 3.8 closely. Annual rent works out to 22% of average household income of $75,132.
