Historical context · 1930s redlining

HOLC grade: B: Still Desirable

This tract sits within an area graded by the Home Owners' Loan Corporation in the 1930s. Grade B meant middle-class areas with mortgage access. 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 Four Mile Run

Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 7.8/10. It sits 0.9 points above the Allegheny County average of 5.0.

In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground B ("Still Desirable"). 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. That is riskier than roughly 77% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Statewide the PA average is 4.6, so this tract runs 1.3 points hotter.

Model confidence here is 60%, lower than typical because some ACS inputs for this tract carry wide margins of error, so read the score as a band, not a point.

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