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 Creighton Court

At $301 a month, rents run 78% under what the rest of Richmond commands. Food insecurity runs 61.1% against 17.8% nationally.

Housing insecurity runs 45.4% against 14.2% nationally. The poverty rate is 57%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Sitting well above the midpoint, court filing pressure reads 9.8/10.

26% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. 81% 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.

Running cool, supply constraint reads 1/10. Against the Richmond City average of 4.3, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.4 points.

Against Richmond City at 50.2%, 43% of renters here are cost-burdened. Princeton's Eviction Lab logged 2,842 filings here across 4 tracked years. The worst year on record was 2014, when 61.7% of renter households were served.

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.
