Brentwood Park takes in 6 census tracts of Los Angeles, CA, population 20,440. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 8/10, in the High tier. At $3,024 a month, rents sit 56% over what the rest of Los Angeles commands.
What pushes the score up most is tenant-organizing strength at 9.7/10. 21% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate. 43% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, ahead of the Los Angeles rate of 35.0%.
On the softer side is economic stress, at 1.7/10. On the high side is eviction-process difficulty at 7.8/10. The voucher gap is 15.2%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which shows up as churn rather than arrears.
Food insecurity affects 6.4% of adults, 11.4 points below the national rate. 3.2% of adults report being unable to pay a utility bill, below a 9.2% national figure. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.
Among the 161 mapped neighborhoods of Los Angeles, it ranks #157 by risk, the lower third. The closest comparables inside the same city are Rose Hill and Braewood.
Poverty sits at 7%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
With little internal variation, 8/10 is a fair proxy for any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
