Historical context · 1930s redlining

HOLC grade: C: Definitely Declining

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 Adams Square

The dominant input is tenant-organizing strength at 9.7/10. This is renter territory: 86% of occupied units are tenant-occupied.

Set annual rent against average income of $58,611 and the ratio lands at 39%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. On the high side, rent-regulation exposure reads 9/10. Against the Los Angeles County average of 8.4, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.5 points.

Sitting well above the midpoint, housing-court posture reads 7.7/10. The poverty rate is 20%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. SNAP participation runs 24.6% against 15.2% nationally.

At $1,911 a month, rents run 12% under what the rest of Glendale commands. 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. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 9.2/10.

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