MVA - Market Value Analysis

MVA Category for your neighborhood? -Written by Emily Indian Mound has a total of three  different MVA categories. The northeast quadrant of the neighborhood is under Category G; meaning, they are part of the “yellow markets,” lowest value homes in the city which is home to approximately 20% of the city and this is where vacancy number increase in this dataset. The southeast quadrant of the neighborhood is within marks of Category H. Still pertaining to the “yellow markets,” as Category G was also found to be there is a lot of overlap here. However, from Category G to H the biggest distinctions that are seen is with that of vacancies, a distinctively lower median sales price, and therefore higher percentages of distressed sales in this portion of the neighborhood. There is a slight variation in the northwest quadrant of Indian Mound where there is a small section that is in the “green markets.” Green market value areas are moderate value homes and homes to approximately 22% of residents. This northwest quadrant is under Category F, where there is only 42% owner occupied housing as well as only 21% of subsidized homes. Historical Context: Mapping Inequality

Indian Mound was redlined in two areas, sections D26 and D27; whereas, “D” sections were labeled as “hazardous” to the HOLC (Home Owners Loan Corporation). This translates to the HOLC not allowing residents in these districts to get a loan, let alone apply for a loan due to the residential or urban area that they live in. The terminology in these reports as for describing the class and occupation of the people in these residents goes from “laborers, wage earners, small business owners.” In these reports the wording of different cultural groups was used in a derogatory and discriminatory language, and would describe the movement of these groups as  ritten by Emily an infiltration. -- W

North and South Indian Mound Neighborhoods Neighborhood Boundaries: The city and neighborhood association boundaries are equivalent. - According to the city of Kansas City, Mo, the neighborhood boundaries are Gladstone Blvd (North), Belmont Blvd (East), Independence Ave (South), and S/N Jackson Ave (West): https://data.kcmo.org/Neighborhoods/Kansas-City-Neighborhood-Boundaries/q45j-ejyk

- According to the neighborhood association the neighborhood boundaries are Gladstone Blvd (North), Belmont Blvd (East), Independence Ave (South), and S/N Jackson Ave (West): https://www.indianmoundneighborhood.org/bylaws/, http://maps.kcmo.org/apps/parcelviewer/ Census Tracts: 6: Hardesty Ave (West), Independence Ave (South), Belmont Blvd (East), Gladstone Blvd (North) 7: S/N Elmwood Ave (West), Independence Ave (South), Hardesty Ave (East), Gladstone Blvd (North) 8: Monroe Ave (West), Independence Ave (South), S/N Elmwood Ave (East), Gladstone Blvd (North (this tract includes census data from beyond neighborhood boundaries on the west side of Jackson) Population: The overall population of the Indian Mound Neighborhoods was fairly steady from 2000 to 2010, however from 2010 to 2017 population has slowly decreased in each section of the neighborhood. While not a dramatic enough decrease to signal a crisis, epidemic, or something of that nature, perhaps the gradual decline may be attributed to certain factors pertaining to jobs, housing, education, or maybe none of these things at all. Hopefully through collection and interpretation of more data, an understanding will surface as to why population has decreased in this neighborhood over the last 10 years. 2017 (a) Census Tract 6: Total Population 3,921, Population Density (Per Sq. Mile) 7,618 (b) Census Tract 7: Total Population 3,396, Population Density (Per Sq. Mile) 6,691.9 (c) Census Tract 8: Total Population 3,521, Population Density (Per Sq. Mile) 7,437.3 2010 (a) Census Tract 6: Total Population 4,408, Population Density (Per Sq. Mile) 8,564.2 (b) Census Tract 7: Total Population 4,381, Population Density (Per Sq. Mile) 8,632.9 (c) Census Tract 8: Total Population 4,488, Population Density (Per Sq. Mile) 9,479.8 2000 (a) Census Tract 6: Total Population 4,517, Population Density (Per Sq. Mile) 8,808.9 (b) Census Tract 7: Total Population 4,123, Population Density (Per Sq. Mile) 8,108.8

(c) Census Tract 8: Total Population 4,395, Population Density (Per Sq. Mile) 9,203.8 Income (Median Household Income): Median Household Incomes in this neighborhood have always been significantly lower than county and state averages, and this gap has increased steadily from 2000 to 2017. In 2000, this neighborhood had the lowest margin of difference between county and state median incomes, around $10,000. 2017, however, saw the largest margin of income difference for this neighborhood compared to county and state averages reaching about $18,000. While other neighborhoods, and sectors of the city may be seeing economic growth which has in turn caused the county and state median incomes to rise, the average income for this neighborhood has remained fairly stagnant despite the rising cost of living. It is integral to dive deeper into the households within this neighborhood to understand the potential factors that may be contributing to this disparity. It is also important to note that the blocks in census tract 6, see a significant difference in median household income compared to neighborhood blocks further to the west, where the median income is nearly 15k more than in tract 6. 2017: Average income for neighborhood: $33,134, approx. 17.5k below County Median Income, approx. 18.5k below State Median Income (a) Census Tract 6: $23,839 (b) Census Tract 7: $37,292 (c) Census Tract 8: $38,272 (d) Jackson County: $50,652 (e) State of Missouri:$51,542 2010: Average income for neighborhood: $29,574, approx. 16.7k below County Median Income, approx. 16.7k below State Median Income (a) Census Tract 6: $27,579 (b) Census Tract 7:$31,729 (c) Census Tract 8: $29,416 (d) Jackson County: $46,252 (e) State of Missouri:$46,262 2000: Average income for neighborhood: $28,525, approx. 10.8k below County Median Income, approx. 9.4k below State Median Income

(a) Census Tract 6:$30,838 (b) Census Tract 7:$27,871 (c) Census Tract 8:$26,866 (d) Jackson County:$39,277 (e) State of Missouri: $37,934 Poverty (Family Incomes Below Poverty Level): From 2000 to 2010, this neighborhood poverty rates nearly doubled across the board. The best explanation for this drastic increase could be the economic recession/housing crisis in 2008 that led to foreclosures, unemployment, and bankruptcy that affected millions of American families. Since 2010, the amount of families experiencing poverty in this neighborhood has been significantly higher than county and state averages, which supplements the median household income data provided above. However, from 2010 to 2017, tracts 7 and 8 have experienced decreases in poverty, while poverty levels in tract 6 have actually increased. In 2017 families living between Hardesty and Belmont Ave (census tract 6) were experiencing concentrated poverty with over one third of families falling below the poverty line. This urges us to investigate potential factors that may be influencing this gap at the block by block level, and may point to particular areas of need/interest with reference to specific streets or blocks within the neighborhood. 2017 (a) Census Tract 6: 37.58%, 761 families (b) Census Tract 7: 20.68%, 677 families (c) Census Tract 8: 24.65%, 645 families (d) Jackson County: 11.64% (e) State of Missouri: 10.27% 2010 (a) Census Tract 6: 32.35%, 1,017 families (b) Census Tract 7: 31.2%, 843 families (c) Census Tract 8: 27.33%, 1,072 families (d) Jackson County: 11.9%

(e) State of Missouri: 9.98% 2000 (a) Census Tract 6: 15.5%, 1,089 (b) Census Tract 7: 14.79%, 913 (c) Census Tract 8: 22.16%, 1,011 (d) Jackson County: 9.01% (e) State of Missouri: 8.56% Median Home Value: (I’m not exactly sure how the changing value of homes may play into the neighborhood profile, but I am very interested to learn more about this and be able to draw more conclusions about where the neighborhood is at now, and where it’s headed in the future) 2017 (a) Census Tract 6: $45,400 (b) Census Tract 7: $59,500 (c) Census Tract 8: $61,500 2010 (a) Census Tract 6: $51,500 (b) Census Tract 7: $75,100 (c) Census Tract 8: $63,400 2000 (a) Census Tract 6: $34,300 (b) Census Tract 7: $44,800 (c) Census Tract 8: $48,700
