· range 8.4–9.9
Carey Ranch takes in 5 census tracts of Los Angeles, CA and houses 12,622 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 9.2/10, placing it in the High tier. 56% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, well clear of the Los Angeles rate of 35.0%.
What pushes the score up most is rent-regulation exposure at 10/10. Severe burden reaches 33%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. Running hot is eviction-process difficulty at 9.5/10.
Sitting well above the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength at 9.5/10. Average gross rent is $2,547, 32% above the Los Angeles average of $1,933.
Set annual rent against average household income of $89,605 and the ratio lands at 34%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. The 5 tracts inside this boundary do not behave alike. Individual scores run 8.4 to 9.9, a 1.5-point gap wide enough that the area average misleads on any specific address.
That places it #89 of 161 neighborhoods in Los Angeles. Social vulnerability runs high at 7.5/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input. 32% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 9.2 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
