Historical context · 1930s redlining

HOLC grade: C: Definitely Declining

This tract sits within an area graded by the Home Owners' Loan Corporation in the 1930s. Grade C meant mixed-race / working-class neighborhoods rated as risky. 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 Cedar Park

What pushes it up most is court filing pressure at 8.2/10. Running hot, regional political climate reads 8.2/10. On the high side, local political climate reads 8/10.

Severe burden reaches 13%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Against the Philadelphia County average of 6.6, this tract reads safer for landlords by 1.2 points. Court records carry 330 eviction filings across 4 observed years.

Filings peaked in 2010 at 16.7% 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 15.1% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 70% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 5.6/10. Statewide the PA average is 4.6, so this tract runs 0.8 points hotter.

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