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 South Park

SNAP participation runs 47.8% against 15.2% nationally. The severe-burden share is 30%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Running hot, local political climate reads 9.5/10.

On the high side, eviction-process difficulty reads 9.5/10. This is renter territory: 74% of occupied units are tenant-occupied.

It sits 1.5 points above the Los Angeles County average of 8.4. At $1,480 a month, rents run 23% under what the rest of Los Angeles commands.

The poverty rate is 25%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 18.9% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.

Against Los Angeles County at 53.8%, 59% of renters here are cost-burdened. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground D ("Hazardous"). 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.

Nationally it ranks #1 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

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.
