HOLC grade: A: Best

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 West End

Average gross rent is $1,760, 62% above the Winston-Salem average. The severe-burden share is 33%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.

The voucher gap is 51.3%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. On the high side, court filing pressure reads 9.5/10.

Well under the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 1/10. Food insecurity runs 4.9% against 17.8% nationally.

SNAP participation runs 3.4% against 15.2% nationally. It sits 0.9 points below the Forsyth County average of 3.9. The filing record is not thin: 74 evictions over 4 years of observation.

Filings peaked in 2010 at 11.2% of renter households. This ground was mapped A ("Best") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Winston-Salem. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above. In a typical year about 6.8% of renter households face a filing.

On the national scale it lands near the 20th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

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.
