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 Arlington

Running cool, supply constraint reads 1/10. At $811 a month, rents run 32% under what the rest of Knoxville commands. On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.9/10.

11% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Against the Knox County average of 3.7, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 0.7 points. This ground was mapped C ("Definitely Declining") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Knoxville. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above.

That is riskier than roughly 49% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 6.8/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured. 42% of renter households spend at least 30% of income on rent.

Annual rent works out to 19% of average household income of $51,991.

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.
