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 Glassell Park

Running hot, local political climate reads 9.5/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 9.5/10.

Severe burden reaches 26%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. 82% 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. Annualized rent equals 34% of average household income of $61,250, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with.

Against the Los Angeles County average of 8.4, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.5 points. Food insecurity runs 30.3% against 17.8% nationally. The poverty rate is 22%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

Housing insecurity runs 24.2% against 14.2% nationally. Average gross rent is $1,754, 9% below the Los Angeles average.

This ground was mapped C ("Definitely Declining") 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. On the national scale it lands near the 100th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

Social vulnerability reads 8.8/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

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