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 Northeast

The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. On the softer side, supply constraint reads 1.2/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 8.5/10.

The severe-burden share is 18%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Average gross rent is $833, 26% below the Kansas City average.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 49 filings here across 1 tracked years. Against the Wyandotte County average of 3.8, this tract reads safer for landlords by 0.8 points.

Inability to pay a utility bill runs 15.6% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. Filings peaked in 2016 at 18.5% 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 18.5% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 20th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

Social vulnerability reads 7/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Against average income of $75,938, annual rent is just 13%.

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