Canoga Park Eviction Risk: High

What pushes the score up most is rent-regulation exposure at 10/10. The severe-burden share is 32%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.

On the high side is eviction-process difficulty at 9.5/10. Sitting well above the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength at 9.5/10.

This is a renter market: 74% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. Annualized rent equals 32% of average household income here, past the 30% affordability line, which compresses the margin any screening standard has to work with.

Internally this is not one market. Tract scores span 8.9 to 9.9, so two buildings inside the same boundary can carry materially different risk. The poverty rate is 18%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest. CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 21.2% of adults, against 14.2% nationally.

Among the 161 mapped neighborhoods of Los Angeles, it ranks #42 by risk, the upper third. Social vulnerability runs high at 8.5/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.

Underwrite the address, not the area: with 1 points between its best and worst tract, the per-tract table below is the operative number. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
