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 Rosedale

This is renter territory: 79% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 8.5/10.

Severe burden reaches 21%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. The poverty rate is 24%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

Running cool, state political climate reads 2/10. Against Wyandotte County at 44.1%, 51% of renters here are cost-burdened.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 116 filings here across 1 tracked years. Against the Wyandotte County average of 3.8, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 0.7 points.

Inability to pay a utility bill runs 15.0% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. Filings peaked in 2016 at 8.3% of renter households.

This ground was mapped D ("Hazardous") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Greater Kansas City. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above. In a typical year about 8.3% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 51% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

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