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 San Antonio

Adults with no health insurance runs 36.6% against 11.3% nationally. The main counterweight is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10.

Cost burden runs 61% here against 48.2% across Bexar County. The poverty rate is 32%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.5/10. Disability prevalence runs 45.0% against 31.5% nationally. On the high side, court filing pressure reads 7.9/10.

It sits 1.1 points above the Bexar County average of 4.1. At $1,097 a month, rents run 17% under what the rest of San Antonio commands.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 512 filings here across 9 tracked years. The worst year on record was 2002, when 11.4% of renter households were served. 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.

In a typical year about 6.9% of renter households face a filing. On the national scale it lands near the 65th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

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.
