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 Canoga Park

33% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Sitting well above the midpoint, local political climate reads 9.5/10. 89% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby.

Running hot, eviction-process difficulty reads 9.5/10. Annualized rent equals 36% of average household income of $55,271, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with. 63% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, higher than the Los Angeles County average of 53.8%.

Against the Los Angeles County average of 8.4, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.5 points. Housing insecurity runs 25.9% against 14.2% nationally.

The poverty rate is 22%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Adults with no health insurance runs 19.1% against 11.3% nationally. At $1,665 a month, rents run 14% under what the rest of Los Angeles commands.

In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
