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 BVQ District

Against Cuyahoga County at 43.0%, roughly one in three of renters here are cost-burdened. The poverty rate is 28%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

Running cool, rent-regulation exposure reads 2/10. It sits 1.4 points above the Cuyahoga County average of 4.6. The severe-burden share is 15%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.

At $1,149 a month, rents run 22% over what the rest of Cleveland commands. On the softer side, state political climate reads 2.4/10.

In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground D ("Hazardous"). 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. Nationally it ranks #18,163 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 8/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Statewide the OH average is 4.2, so this tract runs 1.8 points hotter. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the most 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.
