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 Corlett

SNAP participation runs 56.6% against 15.2% nationally. The poverty rate is 51%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

Severe burden reaches 32%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Housing insecurity runs 37.9% against 14.2% nationally. Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 8.2/10.

It sits 1.4 points above the Cuyahoga County average of 4.6. On the softer side, rent-regulation exposure reads 2/10. The filing record is not thin: 892 evictions over 12 years of observation.

At $1,037 a month, rents run 10% over what the rest of Cleveland commands. Filings peaked in 2007 at 19.3% of renter households. This ground was mapped D ("Hazardous") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Cleveland. 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 15.9% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 78% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

Social vulnerability reads 8.7/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Statewide the OH average is 4.2, so this tract runs 1.8 points hotter.

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