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 Wyoming

Running cool, economic stress reads 1.9/10. 37% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, lower than the Kent County average of 43.7%. Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 2.6/10.

The severe-burden share is 9%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Average gross rent is $1,091, 9% below the Wyoming average. 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.

Nationally it ranks #42,813 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 7.9/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured. It tracks the Kent County average of 4.2 closely.

Annual rent works out to 20% of average household income of $66,702. 31% 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.
