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 Regent Park

The dominant input is court filing pressure at 9.7/10. Annualized rent equals 37% of average household income of $53,768, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with.

Against the Macomb County average of 3.9, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.8 points. Food insecurity runs 32.6% against 17.8% nationally. Average gross rent is $1,651, 25% above the Eastpointe average.

Cost burden runs about half here against 44.2% across Macomb County. Housing insecurity runs 25.9% against 14.2% nationally. The voucher gap is 19.8%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

The poverty rate is 20%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Sitting well above the midpoint, housing-court posture reads 7.1/10. On the high side, supply constraint reads 7/10.

This ground was mapped D ("Hazardous") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Detroit. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above. That is riskier than roughly 74% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

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.
