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 Fort Worth

The score leans hardest on economic stress at 9.2/10. Adults with no health insurance runs 31.0% against 11.3% nationally. The poverty rate is 37%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

On the softer side, rent-regulation exposure reads 1/10. Set annual rent against average income of $35,565 and the ratio lands at 38%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. Severe burden reaches 24%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 8.6/10. Average gross rent is $1,118, 26% below the Fort Worth average.

Disability prevalence runs 45.6% against 31.5% nationally. It sits 1.0 points above the Tarrant County average of 3.8.

Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 938 filings here across 17 tracked years. Filings peaked in 2007 at 13.6% 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.
