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 Lagonda

What pushes it up most is tenant-organizing strength at 8.9/10. Well under the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 1.9/10. On the high side, court filing pressure reads 8/10.

The severe-burden share is 12%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 243 filings here across 6 tracked years.

At $961 a month, rents run 13% over what the rest of Springfield commands. Filings peaked in 2018 at 7.5% of renter households. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). 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 6.7% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #47,371 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. Social vulnerability reads 6.3/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured. It tracks the Clark County average of 4.2 closely.
