What is happening on the ground in Castalia

Live signals from the county and the city: how much building is underway, how many structures are flagged as derelict or substandard, and reported crime over the past year. Each is shown against the typical Memphis area we cover, measured per square mile so a big suburb and a small neighborhood compare fairly.

Counts cover the Castalia boundary shown above. The Less/More marker places Castalia against the per-square-mile rate of every Memphis area we manage, so the raw count is read in context rather than on its own. Refreshed continuously from public records. Reported incidents are not total crime and do not measure how safe an area is or anything about the people who live there. We show the same public figures for every area and rate none. This is factual public data, not legal, investment, or fair-housing advice.

A bit of Castalia history

Historic South Memphis community known as Castalia (sometimes called Castalia Heights), home to one of the city's oldest African American settlements with roots in the late nineteenth century. The community grew around Castalia Park and the Castalia school, and remains a stable working-class residential neighborhood, part of the broader <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orange_Mound,_Memphis" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Orange Mound</a> corridor.

For owners, Castalia is a rental-demand market. Our typical-rent figure here is built on 29 live comps, so the number is grounded rather than guessed. We price each property to its own block and screen for residents who will stay.
