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 Dallas

Against Dallas County at 47.9%, 33% of renters here are cost-burdened. Pulling hardest the other way is rent-regulation exposure at 1/10. Running cool, supply constraint reads 1/10.

Severe burden reaches 22%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. This is renter territory: 70% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. Well under the midpoint, state political climate reads 1.5/10.

Adults with no health insurance runs 25.4% against 11.3% nationally. Against the Dallas County average of 3.8, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.3 points.

The poverty rate is 23%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 2,294 filings here across 18 tracked years. Filings peaked in 2006 at 28.2% 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. In a typical year about 12.1% of renter households face a filing.
