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 Brookside

What pushes it up most is court filing pressure at 8.2/10. Well under the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 2/10. On the softer side, state political climate reads 2.4/10.

The poverty rate is 18%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Against the Cuyahoga County average of 4.6, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 0.9 points.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 262 filings here across 12 tracked years. Filings peaked in 2010 at 9.5% 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 8.8% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 72% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Social vulnerability reads 5.7/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Statewide the OH average is 4.2, so this tract runs 1.3 points hotter. Of its three components the housing type and transport 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.
