Local Trend <br />The HUD Opportunity Indicator scores for Santa Ana are found in Table 9 Similar to the county <br />data, the White population in Santa Ana, including the population below the federal poverty line, <br />received the highest scores in low poverty and labor market participation. However, Asian or <br />Pacific Islander (non-Hispanic) communities, including the population below the federal poverty <br />line, received the highest scores for school proficiency. Hispanic communities above the federal <br />poverty line scored the lowest in low poverty, school proficiency, and labor market participation. <br />Asian or Pacific Islander (non-Hispanic) communities scored the lowest in jobs proximity. <br />Opportunity map scores for Santa Ana census tracts are presented in Figure 35 and Figure 36 <br />along with the City’s sites. <br />A majority of the tracts in the city are low to moderate resource tracts. There are pockets of High <br />resource tracts located near the intersection of Bristol St. and 17th St., the tract that houses the <br />entirety of Santa Ana College, and all other High resource tracts are in the cities periphery. There <br />are no tracts in the highest resource category in Santa Ana. Two tracts in the city near the <br />downtown area are classified as areas of high segregation and poverty. <br />AB2011 Sites Inventory <br />A majority of the sites are located in Moderate Resource areas with 60 percent of the affordable <br />units being located in these areas. The location of the sites within resource areas reflect the <br />pattern in the City with a majority of the tracts being moderate resource. The alternative sites are <br />also within or near a specific plan area or General Plan Focus Area. These areas have been <br />identified by the City for higher intensity development. These areas are also undergoing significant <br />levels of reinvestment from both the City and the private sector and may change the level of <br />resource available to residents. As such, they are opportune sites for redevelopment. Moreover, <br />these areas provide housing opportunities for lower income residents in close proximity to <br />amenities, jobs, resources, and mobility options. <br />Table 10 <br />Distribution of Units by Opportunity <br />Affordable <br />Mixed <br />Income Total <br />High Segregation and <br />Poverty 23% 20% 21% <br />Low Resource 12% 21% 18% <br />Moderate Resource 60% 50% 54% <br />High Resource 5% 9% 8% <br />Total 4,222 9,648 13,870 <br />Exempt Sites <br />The exempt sites designated by the City are primarily located along the west and east sides of <br />17th Street and Tustin Avenue to the east. These areas are generally outside of the City’s Focus <br />Areas and not targeted for redevelopment under the General Plan. Similar to the Alternative sites, <br />there is a high number of exempt sites located within a moderate resource area, but this is <br />consistent with the makeup of the entire City. <br />ATTACHMENT 3
