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 Oak Knoll

Severe burden reaches 27%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Cost burden runs 63% here against 53.8% across Los Angeles County.

On the high side, local political climate reads 7.5/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, regional political climate reads 7.2/10. Against the Los Angeles County average of 8.4, this tract reads safer for landlords by 0.6 points.

Average gross rent is $2,117, 9% above the Alhambra average. 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. That is riskier than roughly 89% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 6.5/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Annual rent works out to 28% of average household income of $90,580.

52% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

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.
