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

Against Fulton County at 46.8%, about three-quarters of renters here are cost-burdened. The dominant input is court filing pressure at 9.6/10. On the softer side, rent-regulation exposure reads 1.5/10.

Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 1.6/10. Against the Fulton County average of 4.2, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.2 points.

Food insecurity runs 7.6% against 17.8% nationally. SNAP participation runs 5.1% against 15.2% nationally.

The filing record is not thin: 158 evictions over 5 years of observation. Filings peaked in 2001 at 11.5% 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 6.9% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 20% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

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.
