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 Cow Hollow

On the high side, eviction-process difficulty reads 10/10. At $3,501 a month, rents run 41% over what the rest of San Francisco commands. Sitting well above the midpoint, tenant-organizing strength reads 10/10.

Cost burden runs roughly one in four here against 37.3% across San Francisco County. 78% 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.

Disability prevalence runs 16.5% against 31.5% nationally. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 2.6% 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 #4,119 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. Social vulnerability reads 1.7/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Against average income of $238,008, annual rent is just 18%. Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 1.5 points hotter. Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.

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.
