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 Tree Section

The severe-burden share is 31%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. The voucher gap is 33.4%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. 41% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, markedly below the Los Angeles County average of 53.8%.

The clearest offset is economic stress at 1.4/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, supply constraint reads 8.3/10. Running hot, local political climate reads 7.5/10.

Adults with no health insurance runs 3.0% against 11.3% nationally. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 3.1% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.

In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). 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 #22,681 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 2.8/10.

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.
