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 Los Altos

What pushes it up most is rent-regulation exposure at 9/10. Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 1.4/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, local political climate reads 8.5/10.

The severe-burden share is 17%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. Against the Los Angeles County average of 8.4, this tract reads safer for landlords by 0.7 points. Average gross rent is $2,072, 11% above the Long Beach average.

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. On the national scale it lands near the 89th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 5.8/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Annual rent works out to 21% of average household income of $120,417.

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