Historical context · 1930s redlining

HOLC grade: D: Hazardous (Redlined)

This tract sits within an area graded by the Home Owners' Loan Corporation in the 1930s. Grade D meant Black, immigrant, and poor neighborhoods systematically denied mortgage credit. 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 City Terrace

Severe burden reaches 28%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Cost burden runs 65% here against 53.8% across Los Angeles County. Food insecurity runs 34.6% against 17.8% nationally.

SNAP participation runs 30.6% against 15.2% nationally. Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 1.9/10.

At $1,821 a month, rents run 22% over what the rest of East Los Angeles commands. Sitting well above the midpoint, local political climate reads 7.5/10. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground D ("Hazardous"). 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 #6,330 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 8.9/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 0.8 points hotter. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the most pressured.

It tracks the Los Angeles County average of 8.4 closely. Annual rent works out to 29% of average household income of $74,271.

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.
