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 Aurora

The severe-burden share is 20%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Adults with no health insurance runs 23.9% against 11.3% nationally. Running cool, rent-regulation exposure reads 2.5/10.

On the softer side, supply constraint reads 2.8/10. Court records carry 20 eviction filings across 3 observed years.

Average gross rent is $1,365, 14% below the Aurora average. Against the Kane County average of 4.1, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 0.6 points. Filings peaked in 2009 at 2.5% 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 1.9% of renter households face a filing.

Nationally it ranks #37,882 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 5.6/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured. 44% of renter households spend at least 30% of income on rent. Annual rent works out to 25% of average household income of $66,128.

45% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

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.
