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 Dominguez

The main counterweight is economic stress at 1/10. Severe burden reaches 22%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. Against Los Angeles County at 53.8%, 46% of renters here are cost-burdened.

Running hot, local political climate reads 7.5/10. Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 2.6/10.

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. Nationally it ranks #28,095 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 7.5/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 2.2 points cooler.

Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Average gross rent is $2,000, close to the Carson average.

Annual rent works out to 22% of average household income of $110,179. 29% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

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