HOLC grade: B: Still Desirable

Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Silver Lake Heights

Sitting well above the midpoint, local political climate reads 9.5/10. On the high side, eviction-process difficulty reads 9.5/10. 20% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

Food insecurity runs 6.6% against 17.8% nationally. Adults with no health insurance runs 3.4% against 11.3% nationally.

This ground was mapped B ("Still Desirable") 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 93% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Social vulnerability reads 2.6/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Against average income of $162,066, annual rent is just 15%. Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 0.9 points hotter. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured.

Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

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