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 West Nashville

The severe-burden share is 23%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure at 1.7/10.

On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.9/10. Well under the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 2.3/10. 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.

Nationally it ranks #59,654 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 4.8/10. Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.

It tracks the Davidson County average of 3.9 closely. Average gross rent is $1,646, close to the Nashville average. Annual rent works out to 20% of average household income of $100,662.

42% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

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