Historical context · 1930s redlining

HOLC grade: C: Definitely Declining

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 Weinland Park

Set annual rent against average income of $27,411 and the ratio lands at 54%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. The score leans hardest on economic stress at 10/10. The poverty rate is 53%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

This is renter territory: 93% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. Well under the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 1.5/10.

Against Franklin County at 41.6%, roughly one in two of renters here are cost-burdened. On the high side, court filing pressure reads 8/10. Against the Franklin County average of 4.4, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.3 points.

Food insecurity runs 28.9% against 17.8% nationally. Court records carry 882 eviction filings across 13 observed years. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 16.2% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.

Filings peaked in 2002 at 11.2% 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 7.7% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 74% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

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.
