Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Dolanco Junction

This ground was mapped D ("Hazardous") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Los Angeles. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above. That is riskier than roughly 82% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 6.2/10.

Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 0.9 points cooler. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured.

Rent takes 30% or more of income for 55% of renters. Annual rent works out to 21% of average household income of $106,250.

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