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 Villa Capri

Average gross rent is $1,640, 38% above the Kenosha average. Pulling hardest the other way is economic stress at 1.8/10. On the softer side, rent-regulation exposure reads 2/10.

Running cool, state political climate reads 2.9/10. The voucher gap is 13.3%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

This ground was mapped D ("Hazardous") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Kenosha. 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 25% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

At 12% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 2.3/10.

Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured. 42% of renter households spend at least 30% of income on rent. It tracks the Kenosha County average of 3.8 closely.

Annual rent works out to 24% of average household income of $82,429.
