Historical context · 1930s redlining

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 Straw/Smyth

The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. Running cool, economic stress reads 1/10. Severe burden reaches 16%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

Food insecurity runs 6.4% against 17.8% nationally. Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 2.5/10.

Housing insecurity runs 6.5% against 14.2% nationally. Against the Hillsborough County average of 4.0, this tract reads safer for landlords by 0.6 points. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground B ("Still Desirable"). 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 #59,654 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 1.2/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Rent consumes only 17% of average household income of $112,630, an unusually wide affordability cushion.

Statewide the NH average is 4.2, so this tract runs 0.8 points cooler.

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.
