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 Radburn

Severe burden reaches 19%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. On the high side, court filing pressure reads 7.9/10.

SNAP participation runs 3.7% against 15.2% nationally. Against the Bergen County average of 6.3, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 0.7 points.

Average gross rent is $1,690, 12% below the Fair Lawn average. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 4.0% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. This ground was mapped B ("Still Desirable") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Bergen Co. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above.

That is riskier than roughly 85% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Statute speed, court posture and rent-regulation exposure are inherited from Fair Lawn eviction risk rather than measured on these blocks; the economic and supply components are the tract-level part of the score.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 3.8/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Against average income of $115,069, annual rent is just 18%. Statewide the NJ average is 6.0, so this tract runs 1.0 points hotter.

Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured.

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.
