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 Prospect Hill

Pulling hardest the other way is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. Set annual rent against average income of $33,947 and the ratio lands at 35%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. Running cool, state political climate reads 1.5/10.

The poverty rate is 31%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. On the softer side, supply constraint reads 1.7/10. Disability prevalence runs 45.1% against 31.5% nationally.

Average gross rent is $1,004, 24% below the San Antonio average. 14% 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 Bexar County average of 4.1, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.1 points.

Cost burden runs 43% here against 48.2% across Bexar County. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 430 filings here across 9 tracked years.

Filings peaked in 2008 at 10.7% of renter households. This ground was mapped D ("Hazardous") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for San Antonio. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above.

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