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 City Terrace

Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 1/10. SNAP participation runs 33.7% against 15.2% nationally.

This is renter territory: 74% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. 22% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Adults with no health insurance runs 27.3% against 11.3% nationally.

The poverty rate is 24%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. On the high side, local political climate reads 7.5/10. It sits 0.9 points above the Los Angeles County average of 8.4.

At $1,301 a month, rents run 13% under what the rest of East Los Angeles commands. 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.

That is riskier than roughly 96% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 9.2/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 1.8 points hotter.

Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the most pressured. 50% of renter households spend at least 30% of income on rent.

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.
