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 Harbor View

Cost burden runs around a third here against 46.8% across Baltimore County. Running hot, local political climate reads 8.9/10.

On the high side, rent-regulation exposure reads 8.4/10. Against the Baltimore County average of 5.7, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.3 points. Average gross rent is $1,783, 21% above the Dundalk average.

9% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. 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. That is riskier than roughly 85% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

Social vulnerability reads 5.3/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Statewide the MD average is 5.5, so this tract runs 1.5 points hotter.

Annual rent works out to 26% of average household income of $82,679.

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.
