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 Plymouth-Hubbell

The dominant input is court filing pressure at 9.7/10. Food insecurity runs 40.8% against 17.8% nationally. Severe burden reaches 27%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

Set annual rent against average income of $37,441 and the ratio lands at 34%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. Cost burden runs 37% here against 46.6% across Wayne County. The poverty rate is 27%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

Well under the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 2/10. It sits 1.4 points above the Wayne County average of 4.6. Running hot, local political climate reads 7.5/10.

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 #18,163 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 8/10.

Statewide the MI average is 4.2, so this tract runs 1.8 points hotter.

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.
