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 Garland District

Against Spokane County at 45.2%, 56% of renters here are cost-burdened. Pulling hardest the other way is economic stress at 2/10. Well under the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 3/10.

Court records carry 30 eviction filings across 3 observed years. On the softer side, supply constraint reads 3/10.

The worst year on record was 2014, when 1.8% of renter households were served. This ground was mapped C ("Definitely Declining") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Spokane. 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 2.0% of renter households face a filing.

That is riskier than roughly 76% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Only 23% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.

CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 5.3/10. It tracks the Spokane County average of 5.7 closely.

Average gross rent is $1,150, close to the Spokane average.

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