Historical context · 1930s redlining

HOLC grade: D: Hazardous (Redlined)

This tract sits within an area graded by the Home Owners' Loan Corporation in the 1930s. Grade D meant Black, immigrant, and poor neighborhoods systematically denied mortgage credit. 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 Kinsman

58% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, well above the Cuyahoga County average of 43.0%. The severe-burden share is 30%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.

The clearest offset is supply constraint at 1/10. 86% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby.

The poverty rate is 33%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Housing insecurity runs 31.2% against 14.2% nationally. At $668 a month, rents run 29% under what the rest of Cleveland commands.

Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 8.2/10. On the high side, economic stress reads 8.2/10. Against the Cuyahoga County average of 4.6, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.4 points.

The filing record is not thin: 519 evictions over 12 years of observation. Filings peaked in 2008 at 18.8% of renter households.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
