HOLC grade: C: Definitely Declining

Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Temple City

Severe burden reaches 25%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. The clearest offset is supply constraint at 2/10. Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 2.4/10.

Running hot, local political climate reads 7.5/10. 49% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, below the Los Angeles County average of 53.8%.

At $1,834 a month, rents run 14% under what the rest of Temple City commands. 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. On the national scale it lands near the 76th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 6.3/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 1.7 points cooler.

Annual rent works out to 21% of average household income of $104,097. 49% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
