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 Broadmoor

Running hot, rent-regulation exposure reads 9/10. On the high side, tenant-organizing strength reads 9/10. Against King County at 44.1%, 35% of renters here are cost-burdened.

Disability prevalence runs 17.0% against 31.5% nationally. 15% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Court records carry 72 eviction filings across 9 observed years.

It sits 0.7 points above the King County average of 6.7. The worst year on record was 2008, when 1.0% of renter households were served.

This ground was mapped C ("Definitely Declining") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Seattle. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above. In a typical year about 0.6% of renter households face a filing. That is riskier than roughly 87% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 3.1/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

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