Historical context · 1930s redlining

HOLC grade: C: Definitely Declining

This tract sits within an area graded by the Home Owners' Loan Corporation in the 1930s. Grade C meant mixed-race / working-class neighborhoods rated as risky. 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 Warnersville

The poverty rate is 49%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. 29% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Running hot, court filing pressure reads 9.5/10.

Food insecurity runs 37.7% against 17.8% nationally. On the softer side, rent-regulation exposure reads 1.5/10.

It sits 1.3 points above the Guilford County average of 4.0. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 19.3% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. At $965 a month, rents run 18% under what the rest of Greensboro commands.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 518 filings here across 5 tracked years. Filings peaked in 2005 at 16.6% of renter households.

This ground was mapped C ("Definitely Declining") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Greensboro. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above.
