HOLC grade: B: Still Desirable

This tract sits within an area graded by the Home Owners' Loan Corporation in the 1930s. Grade B meant middle-class areas with mortgage access. 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 Schulze

Set annual rent against average income of $47,389 and the ratio lands at 34%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. Food insecurity runs 34.0% against 17.8% nationally. Severe burden reaches 20%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

Average gross rent is $1,361, 27% above the Detroit average. Running cool, rent-regulation exposure reads 2/10.

Cost burden runs 55% here against 46.6% across Wayne County. Housing insecurity runs 26.9% against 14.2% nationally.

On the high side, local political climate reads 7.5/10. This ground was mapped B ("Still Desirable") 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. On the national scale it lands near the 55th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

Social vulnerability reads 8.7/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

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.
