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 dominant input is rent-regulation exposure at 9/10. 83% 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. On the softer side, supply constraint reads 1.3/10.

Annualized rent equals 32% of average household income of $61,528, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with. Food insecurity runs 33.1% against 17.8% nationally. Sitting well above the midpoint, local political climate reads 8.5/10.

It sits 1.5 points above the Los Angeles County average of 8.4. Housing insecurity runs 26.3% against 14.2% nationally.

The poverty rate is 23%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Average gross rent is $1,653, 12% below the Long Beach 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. Nationally it ranks #1 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 9.2/10.
