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 Riverside Hills

On the high side, tenant-organizing strength reads 9/10. 40% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, markedly below the Bibb County average of 51.4%. 19% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

Running hot, housing-court posture reads 8.4/10. It sits 1.4 points below the Bibb County average of 4.9. Court records carry 819 eviction filings across 8 observed years.

Average gross rent is $950, 11% below the Macon-Bibb County average. Filings peaked in 2004 at 24.7% of renter households.

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. In a typical year about 16.9% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 31% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 4.2/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Rent consumes only 17% of average household income of $67,333, an unusually wide affordability cushion.

Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured. 51% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

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