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 Uptown

Average gross rent is $1,661, 33% above the New Orleans average. On the high side, regional political climate reads 8.4/10. It sits 1.5 points below the Orleans Parish average of 5.4.

Sitting well above the midpoint, local political climate reads 8/10. Food insecurity runs 6.1% against 17.8% nationally. SNAP participation runs 3.6% against 15.2% nationally.

Against Orleans Parish at 51.4%, 44% of renters here are cost-burdened. Severe burden reaches 11%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 21 filings here across 8 tracked years.

The voucher gap is 12.4%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. The worst year on record was 2007, when 3.4% of renter households were served. This ground was mapped D ("Hazardous") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for New Orleans. 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 1.3% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #50,654 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

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.
