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 North Loop
The score leans hardest on local political climate at 9/10. 86% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. Against the Hennepin County average of 5.1, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 2.0 points.
On the high side, tenant-organizing strength reads 8.5/10. roughly one in three of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, lower than the Hennepin County average of 43.1%. The voucher gap is 21.8%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.
14% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Running hot, rent-regulation exposure reads 7.5/10. The poverty rate is 19%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.
SNAP participation runs 7.4% against 15.2% nationally. Food insecurity runs 10.8% against 17.8% nationally.
In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground D ("Hazardous"). 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.
