Historical context · 1930s redlining

HOLC grade: C: Definitely Declining

Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Loma Portal

Severe burden reaches 20%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. The score leans hardest on rent-regulation exposure at 8/10. On the high side, eviction-process difficulty reads 8/10.

It sits 1.5 points above the San Diego County average of 7.6. On the softer side, supply constraint reads 2.3/10.

Food insecurity runs 10.2% against 17.8% nationally. At $2,112 a month, rents run 9% under what the rest of San Diego commands. 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.

On the national scale it lands near the 95th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 4.3/10.

Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 1.6 points hotter. Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.

Annual rent works out to 31% of average household income of $81,477. 60% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

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.
