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 Albina

Running hot, tenant-organizing strength reads 9/10. This is renter territory: 73% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. On the high side, rent-regulation exposure reads 8.5/10.

The severe-burden share is 14%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. The filing record is not thin: 1,052 evictions over 16 years of observation. It sits 0.7 points above the Multnomah County average of 7.4.

The worst year on record was 2003, when 15.7% of renter households were served. 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.

In a typical year about 7.6% of renter households face a filing. Nationally it ranks #7,382 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 5.1/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

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.
