Historical context · 1930s redlining

HOLC grade: C: Definitely Declining

This tract sits within an area graded by the Home Owners' Loan Corporation in the 1930s. Grade C meant mixed-race / working-class neighborhoods rated as risky. 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 Gold Coast

Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 1.1/10. Severe burden reaches 23%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

This is renter territory: 67% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. Running hot, regional political climate reads 8.1/10. This ground was mapped C ("Definitely Declining") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Oakland. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above.

Nationally it ranks #10,727 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 5.1/10.

Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. 43% of renter households spend at least 30% of income on rent.

It tracks the Alameda County average of 7.8 closely. Average gross rent is $2,311, close to the Alameda average.

Annual rent works out to 26% of average household income of $105,836.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
