Historical context · 1930s redlining

HOLC grade: D: Hazardous (Redlined)

This tract sits within an area graded by the Home Owners' Loan Corporation in the 1930s. Grade D meant Black, immigrant, and poor neighborhoods systematically denied mortgage credit. 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 Florence-Firestone

Food insecurity runs 44.9% against 17.8% nationally. Cost burden runs 70% here against 53.8% across Los Angeles County.

The score leans hardest on tenant-organizing strength at 9.7/10. Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 1/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 8.5/10.

It sits 1.5 points above the Los Angeles County average of 8.4. The poverty rate is 23%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. At $1,265 a month, rents run 17% under what the rest of Florence-Graham commands.

Inability to pay a utility bill runs 16.1% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. This ground was mapped D ("Hazardous") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Los Angeles. 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 #1 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

Social vulnerability reads 7.9/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 2.4 points hotter. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the most pressured.

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