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 Bon Ayer

The dominant input is economic stress at 10/10. On the high side, court filing pressure reads 9.6/10.

The poverty rate is 41%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Food insecurity runs 37.5% against 17.8% nationally. Sitting well above the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 9/10.

61% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, above the Bibb County average of 51.4%. Housing insecurity runs 28.8% against 14.2% nationally.

Against the Bibb County average of 4.9, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.1 points. Average gross rent is $895, 16% below the Macon-Bibb County average. The filing record is not thin: 953 evictions over 8 years of observation.

Filings peaked in 2007 at 47.3% 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.

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.
