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 Pembroke

The severe-burden share is 22%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Running cool, economic stress reads 1.5/10. On the high side, tenant-organizing strength reads 8.2/10.

34% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, below the Oakland County average of 39.8%. 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.

On the national scale it lands near the 47th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. At 19% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 2/10.

Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured. It tracks the Oakland County average of 4.0 closely. Average gross rent is $1,494, close to the Oak Park average.

Annual rent works out to 20% of average household income of $91,728.
