Glassell Park is a 11-tract neighborhood of Los Angeles, CA and houses 33,001 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 9.2/10, High tier. 50% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, markedly above the Los Angeles rate of 35.0%.
The dominant input is rent-regulation exposure at 10/10. Sitting well above the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty at 9.5/10.
Running hot is tenant-organizing strength at 9.5/10. 22% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate.
Internally this is not one market. Tract scores span 8.4 to 9.9, so two buildings inside the same boundary can carry materially different risk. Among the 161 mapped neighborhoods of Los Angeles, it ranks #89 by risk, the middle third. For a like-for-like read, Reseda Ranch and Tarzana score within a fraction of it.
Average gross rent runs $1,946, close to the Los Angeles average. Annual rent works out to 24% of average household income of $99,020. 54% 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.
