Alvarado Terrace Historic District Eviction Risk: High , Los Angeles

Severe burden reaches 33%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. 97% 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.

On the high side, local political climate reads 9.5/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 9.5/10. SNAP participation runs 32.8% against 15.2% nationally.

Set annual rent against average income of $51,875 and the ratio lands at 33%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. At $1,437 a month, rents run 26% under what the rest of Los Angeles commands. Against the Los Angeles County average of 8.4, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.5 points.

The poverty rate is 20%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Adults with no health insurance runs 21.2% against 11.3% nationally. This ground was mapped C ("Definitely Declining") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Los Angeles.
