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 The Old Market

The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.8/10.

roughly one in two of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, above the Douglas County average of 44.0%. Running hot, court filing pressure reads 7.5/10.

The worst year on record was 2011, when 7.1% of renter households were served. This ground was mapped C ("Definitely Declining") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Omaha.
