The poverty rate is 30%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Against the Los Angeles County average of 8.4, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.5 points. At $1,604 a month, rents run 17% under what the rest of Los Angeles commands.

SNAP participation runs 24.0% against 15.2% nationally. That is riskier than roughly 100% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

Social vulnerability reads 9.1/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 2.4 points hotter.
