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 Dallas

82% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, well clear of the Dallas County average of 47.9%. 90% 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.

The clearest offset is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. Set annual rent against average income of $40,299 and the ratio lands at 39%, above the conventional 30% ceiling.

Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.5/10. Adults with no health insurance runs 27.7% against 11.3% nationally. On the high side, court filing pressure reads 8.4/10.

The poverty rate is 23%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Against the Dallas County average of 3.8, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.3 points. Average gross rent is $1,300, 12% below the Dallas average.

This ground was mapped C ("Definitely Declining") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Dallas. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above. Nationally it ranks #31,049 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

Social vulnerability reads 10/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Statewide the TX average is 3.9, so this tract runs 1.2 points hotter.

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.
