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 South Encanto

Cost burden runs 69% here against 52.5% across San Diego County. Pulling hardest the other way is supply constraint at 1/10. It sits 2.2 points above the San Diego County average of 7.6.

Average gross rent is $1,654, 28% below the San Diego average. Sitting well above the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 8/10. On the high side, eviction-process difficulty reads 8/10.

SNAP participation runs 27.7% against 15.2% nationally. Adults with no health insurance runs 18.3% against 11.3% nationally.

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. That is riskier than roughly 97% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 9.7/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 2.3 points hotter. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the most pressured. Annual rent works out to 31% of average household income of $64,815.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
