HOLC grade: A: Best

This tract sits within an area graded by the Home Owners' Loan Corporation in the 1930s. Grade A meant wealthy, predominantly white neighborhoods favored for lending. 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 Enslow Park Place

The score leans hardest on economic stress at $1/10. That part is specific to this tract, computed from its own rent, income, and poverty figures. Statewide and court-level factors such as eviction-process speed and rent-control exposure are inherited from Huntington eviction risk, while the economic and supply signals are measured at the tract level.

Set against its neighbors, this tract scores above the Cabell County average of 4.5 and above the West Virginia statewide average of 4.3. Within its own county it reads on the riskier side for landlords.

Part of this tract, about 33% of its area, sat in the redlined grade-D zone on 1930s HOLC maps, though its dominant grade was A ("Best"). That lending history still correlates with present-day rent burden.

In CDC survey modeling, about 21.4% of adults here said they could not pay rent or mortgage at some point in the past year, and 21.5% faced a utility shutoff threat, a common early warning before a filing.

For a landlord, conditions here are middle-of-the-road. Standard screening and prompt, documented notices usually keep cases short.
