Housing
The Historic Redlining Indicator (HRI) quantifies neighborhood-level redlining based on the Home Owners’ Loan Corporation (HOLC) residential security maps from the 1930s, which graded mortgage investment risk using racial and ethnic factors. The HRI, calculated for Census 2020 boundaries, is a continuous score reflecting redlining severity, allowing for analysis of structural racism in housing markets.
