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 San Antonio

32% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. The dominant input is economic stress at 9.2/10.

Annualized rent equals 41% of average household income of $28,544, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with. The poverty rate is 37%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Well under the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 1/10.

Disability prevalence runs 48.9% against 31.5% nationally. Against Bexar County at 48.2%, 58% of renters here are cost-burdened.

On the softer side, state political climate reads 1.5/10. Average gross rent is $970, 27% below the San Antonio average.

Against the Bexar County average of 4.1, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.1 points. Court records carry 200 eviction filings across 9 observed years. Filings peaked in 2006 at 14.3% of renter households.

In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground D ("Hazardous"). 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.

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