Historical context · 1930s redlining

HOLC grade: A: Best

This tract sits within an area graded by the Home Owners' Loan Corporation in the 1930s. Grade A meant wealthy, predominantly white neighborhoods favored for lending. 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 Simon's

Cost burden runs 58% here against 43.9% across Lancaster County. Pulling hardest the other way is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10.

Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.8/10. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 222 filings here across 14 tracked years.

Running cool, eviction-process difficulty reads 3/10. The worst year on record was 2013, when 4.3% of renter households were served.

In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground A ("Best"). 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. In a typical year about 2.6% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 46% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 5.6/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. It tracks the Lancaster County average of 3.8 closely.

Average gross rent is $1,057, close to the Lincoln average. Annual rent works out to 21% of average household income of $61,866. 26% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

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.
