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 Cambodia Town

The score leans hardest on rent-regulation exposure at 9/10. 81% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. Set annual rent against average income of $55,148 and the ratio lands at 38%, above the conventional 30% ceiling.

64% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, markedly above the Los Angeles County average of 53.8%. Sitting well above the midpoint, local political climate reads 8.5/10.

Running hot, eviction-process difficulty reads 8.5/10. It sits 1.5 points above the Los Angeles County average of 8.4. Adults with no health insurance runs 22.5% against 11.3% nationally.

The poverty rate is 21%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 15.7% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.

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 #1 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. Social vulnerability reads 10/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 2.4 points hotter.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
