Biggest thing is probably Hispanics tend to be very low turnout. We see this in some other SoCal seats and seats like TX-18 and TX-33 which should functionally be Hispanic based on their topline demographics, aren't because of how poorly Hispanics turnout. Often, a seat needs to be around 70% Hispanic to truly be functional.
Another factor could be the Hispanic vote is often pretty diverse; it can be harder to get Hispanics to "block-vote" the way black voters often do, especially when there are multiple different ethnicities involved.
