Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Garnsey

What pushes it up most is rent-regulation exposure at 10/10. On the high side, local political climate reads 9.5/10.

Sitting well above the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 9.5/10. This is renter territory: 74% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. The poverty rate is 28%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

It sits 1.5 points above the Los Angeles County average of 8.4. Against Los Angeles County at 53.8%, 60% of renters here are cost-burdened. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today.

That is riskier than roughly 100% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 8.7/10. Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 2.4 points hotter.

Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured. Average gross rent is $1,892, close to the Los Angeles average. Annual rent works out to 30% of average household income of $76,315.

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.
