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 Market Mohawk District

26% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. 81% 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. At $877 a month, rents run 32% under what the rest of Columbus commands.

On the softer side, rent-regulation exposure reads 1.5/10. Set annual rent against average income of $32,758 and the ratio lands at 32%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. The poverty rate is 25%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

Against Franklin County at 41.6%, about half 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. 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. On the national scale it lands near the 74th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 5.8/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Statewide the OH average is 4.2, so this tract runs 1.5 points hotter. Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.

All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
