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 Aviation Sub

Set annual rent against average income of $48,750 and the ratio lands at 33%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. Food insecurity runs 34.0% against 17.8% nationally.

Running cool, rent-regulation exposure reads 2/10. Housing insecurity runs 27.6% against 14.2% nationally. Average gross rent is $1,324, 23% above the Detroit average.

The poverty rate is 24%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Against Wayne County at 46.6%, 54% of renters here are cost-burdened. Running hot, local political climate reads 7.5/10.

The severe-burden share is 11%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. It sits 1.0 points above the Wayne County average of 4.6.

This ground was mapped C ("Definitely Declining") 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 73% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
