SPECIAL CENSUS SURVEY OF THE SOUTH AND
EAST LOS ANGELES AREAS: NOVEMBER 1965
This report presents summary statistics
based on data gathered from every 10th house
hold in the South and East Los Angeles areas in
November 1965. The South Los Angeles area is a
section of Los Angeles in which the population
is predominantly Negro and the East Los Angeles
area is a section of the city in which the pop
ulation is predominantly Mexican–American. The
survey was conducted on the recommendation of
Dr. Andrew F. Brimmer, then Assistant Secretary
for Economic Affairs, Department of Commerce,
in connection with his work on the task force
appointed by President Johnson to investigate
the riots in Watts and adjoining areas of Los
Angeles in the summer of 1965. The survey was
financed by the Office of Economic Opportunity
and conducted by the Bureau of the Census.
In South Los Angeles, median family income
(adjusted for price changes) dropped by 8 per
cent--from $5,100 in 1959 to $11,700 in 1965.
Declines ranging from about 2 to 11+ percent
were recorded in each of the seven neighborhoods
in the area. The median also fell in each of
the three Mexican-American neighborhoods in
East Los Angeles.
About one-fourth (27 percent) of all fami
lies in South Los Angeles had incomes below the
poverty level in 1965. The incidence of poverty
in the individual neighborhoods ranged from 19
percent in Willow Brook to H2 percent in Watts.
The incidence of poverty in East Los Angeles
was similar to that in South Los Angeles (2+
percent), but the range varied only between 21
and 26 percent in the individual neighborhoods.

DO NOT DISCARD
Many factors contributed to the decline in
median family income in South Los Angeles. One
important factor was the change in family com—
position within the area. In 1960, about 75
percent of all families in South Los Angeles
were married couples living in their own house
holds. By 1965, this proportion had dropped to
70 percent. These figures, which suggest an
increase in the prevalence of "broken" homes
within the area, are supported by other census
data which show that the proportion of children
living with both parents in South Los Angeles
dropped from 68 percent in 1960 to 62 percent
in 1965. Since the incomes of broken families
are far lower, on the average, than those in
which a husband and wife are both present, this
change in family composition tended to reduce
the average income for the area as a whole.
Selective out-migration may also have con
tributed to the decline in median family income
in both South and East Los Angeles. The popu
lation in these areas declined between 1960 and
1965. This decrease represents the net effect
of large numbers of families moving into the
area and even larger numbers moving out. If
the more successful families tended to move to
more desirable neighborhoods and they were re
placed by lower income groups moving in from
other parts of the State or the Nation, average
family income for the area as a whole would
tend to be depressed. This kind of a change
can be measured in two of the neighborhoods in
South Los Angeles (Green Meadows and Exposition)
where the special census showed large numbers
t Printing Office, Washington, D.C., 20402, 15 cents.
BUREAU OF THE CENSUS. A. Ross Eckler, Director
of white families were replaced by Negroes be
tween 1960 and 1965. Similar changes may have
occurred in other neighborhoods as well.
About 80 percent of the people who lived
in South Los Angeles in November 1965, had been
living in the city for at least five years;
about half of them were living in the same house
or apartment they occupied in 1960. Only 6
percent of the residents in the area in Novem
ber 1965 lived in one of the Southern States
five years earlier. This pattern of movement
in the South Los Angeles area in 1965 was not
much different from that reported in the 1960
Census.
Population movement in the area has re
sulted in an increasing concentration of Negroes
in South Los Angeles and of Mexican-Americans
in East Los Angeles. In 1960, 70 percent of
the residents of South Los Angeles were Ne
groes as compared with 81 percent in 1965.
Although the proportion of Negroes increased
in each neighborhood in South Los Angeles, the
greatest changes occurred in Exposition and
Green Meadows. The proportion of Negroes in
these neighborhoods was about 10 percent in
1950, about 60 percent in 1960, and about 80
percent in 1965. In East Los Angeles, the pro
portion of Mexican-Americans increased from 66
percent to 76 percent between 1960 and 1965.
Nationally, there was a drop from 12 per
cent to 6 percent in the rate of unemployment
for nonwhite males between 1960 and 1965. The
rates in the census area, however, were vir
tually unchanged. In South Los Angeles, the
unemployment rate for males dropped from ll
percent in 1960 to 10 percent in 1965. In East
Los Angeles, the rate dropped from 9 percent to
8 percent.
There was an apparent deterioration in
quality of housing in the census area. In South
Los Angeles the proportion of dilapidated units
increased from 3 percent in 1960 to 5 percent
in 1965, and the proportion of deteriorating
units rose from 15 to 28 percent during the same
period. In East Los Angeles, the dilapidation
portion of deteriorating units rose from 20 to
28 percent. Figures on housing conditions are
based upon individual judgments of enumerators,
rather than on any objective measurements.
Despite the apparent decline in the quality
of housing, the median value of owner-occupied
homes in South Los Angeles rose from $ll, 300 to
$14,600, and median gross monthly rent increased
from $69 to $78. In East Los Angeles, home
values rose on the average from $11,800 to
$16,400, and median gross monthly rents in
creased from $63 to $75. This increase in home
values can be attributed largely to rising real
estate prices in the Los Angeles area.
Since the figures presented in this report
are based on sample data, they may differ from
the figures that would have been obtained from
a complete census. The l in 10 sample for 1965
and the l in H sample for 1960, however, are
large enough to provide a valid basis for most
types of analysis and comparison. A more com
plete statement on variability due to sampling,
as well as detailed information about the sub
jects for which data are presented here, will be
contained in the final report for this survey.
Generally, the subjects covered are defined
in the reports of the 1960 Census with one ex
ception--the poverty level. Here, families and
unrelated individuals were classified as being
above or below the poverty level using the
poverty index developed by the Social Security
Administration. This index takes into account
such factors as family size and number of chil
dren, as well as the amount of money income.
The poverty level is based on a minimum nutri
tionally sound food plan ("economy" plan) de
signed by the Department of Agriculture for
"emergency or temporary use when funds are low."
Assuming that a poor family typically spends as
much as a third of its income for food, the
cost of food included in the economy plan was
used to determine the minimum total income re
quirements for a given type of family. For a
more detailed description of the Social Secu
rity Administration's poverty index, see Mollie
Orshansky: "Counting the Poor – Another Look at
the Poverty Profile," Social Security Bulletin,
