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 Dallas

This is renter territory: 99% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10.

On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.5/10. On the high side, court filing pressure reads 8.4/10.

At $1,787 a month, rents run 21% over what the rest of Dallas commands. The poverty rate is 22%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. The severe-burden share is 12%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.

It sits 0.6 points above the Dallas County average of 3.8. 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.

That is riskier than roughly 49% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 5.2/10.

Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured. Annual rent works out to 26% of average household income of $83,995.

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.
