Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Gallery Row

On the high side, economic stress reads 10/10. This is renter territory: 100% of occupied units are tenant-occupied.

The poverty rate is 40%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Sitting well above the midpoint, local political climate reads 9.5/10. Severe burden reaches 17%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

Against the Los Angeles County average of 8.4, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.5 points. SNAP participation runs 25.6% against 15.2% nationally.

Food insecurity runs 24.8% against 17.8% nationally. This ground was mapped D ("Hazardous") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Los Angeles. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above.

That is riskier than roughly 100% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 9.7/10.

Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 2.4 points hotter.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
