Historical context · 1930s redlining

HOLC grade: C: Definitely Declining

Sitting well above the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 8.3/10. Food insecurity runs 8.2% against 17.8% nationally.

This ground was mapped C ("Definitely Declining") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Los Angeles.
