Historical context · 1930s redlining

HOLC grade: A: Best

This tract sits within an area graded by the Home Owners' Loan Corporation in the 1930s. Grade A meant wealthy, predominantly white neighborhoods favored for lending. 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 Highland Park

Pulling hardest the other way is economic stress at 2.3/10. On the high side, court filing pressure reads 7.6/10. On the softer side, eviction-process difficulty reads 2.8/10.

The filing record is not thin: 55 evictions over 3 years of observation. Filings peaked in 2004 at 4.3% of renter households.

In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground A ("Best"). 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 2.8% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 33% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 5/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Against average income of $97,412, annual rent is just 15%.

Statewide the PA average is 4.6, so this tract runs 1.0 points cooler. Of its three components the household composition measure is the most pressured.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
