Chesterfield Square spans 5 census tracts of Los Angeles, CA, population 24,736. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 9.9/10, in the High tier. Severe burden reaches 45%. 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. On the high side is tenant-organizing strength at 9.5/10. CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 26.9% of adults, against 14.2% nationally.
Food insecurity affects 31.7% of adults, 13.9 points above the national rate. Average gross rent is $1,581, 18% below the Los Angeles average of $1,933. The poverty rate is 19%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest.
That places it #1 of 161 neighborhoods in Los Angeles. The closest comparables inside the same city are Ramona Gardens and Bicycle District.
Social vulnerability runs high at 9.2/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input. Its 5 tracts score within 0.2 points of one another, so the area figure travels well to individual addresses. Annual rent works out to 27% of average household income of $69,651.
With little internal variation, 9.9/10 is a fair proxy for any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
