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 Ormewood

Running cool, rent-regulation exposure reads 1.5/10. On the softer side, state political climate reads 2/10. The severe-burden share is 15%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.

Against the Fulton County average of 4.2, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.1 points. The filing record is not thin: 415 evictions over 5 years of observation.

SNAP participation runs 6.9% against 15.2% nationally. Food insecurity runs 9.7% against 17.8% nationally. The worst year on record was 2001, when 20.5% of renter households were served.

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 13.3% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #65,414 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 1.4/10. Rent consumes only 14% of average household income of $152,723, an unusually wide affordability cushion.

Statewide the GA average is 4.2, so this tract runs 1.1 points cooler. Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.

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