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

Average gross rent is $530, 60% below the San Antonio average. Adults with no health insurance runs 45.9% against 11.3% nationally.

The poverty rate is 60%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Disability prevalence runs 54.2% against 31.5% nationally. 29% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

83% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. Well under the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 1/10. On the softer side, supply constraint reads 1/10.

Against the Bexar County average of 4.1, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.1 points. Court records carry 276 eviction filings across 9 observed years.

The worst year on record was 2003, when 8.5% of renter households were served. This ground was mapped C ("Definitely Declining") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for San Antonio. 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 5.1% of renter households face a filing.
