8 census tracts · pop 35,209 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 9/10
· range 8.4–9.9
Granada Hills spans 8 census tracts of Los Angeles, CA, population 35,209. Scored across those inputs it reaches 9/10, placing it in the High tier. Against a Los Angeles baseline of 35.0%, 58% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
What pushes the score up most is rent-regulation exposure at 10/10. The severe-burden share is 35%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. On the high side is eviction-process difficulty at 9.5/10.
Running hot is tenant-organizing strength at 9.5/10. At $2,437 a month, rents sit 26% over what the rest of Los Angeles commands. The 8 tracts inside this boundary do not behave alike. Individual scores run 8.4 to 9.9, a 1.5-point gap wide enough that the area average misleads on any specific address.
That places it #105 of 161 neighborhoods in Los Angeles. For a like-for-like read, Oxford Square and Mission Hills score within a fraction of it. Annual rent works out to 29% of average household income of $99,762.
46% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
Underwrite the address, not the area: with 1.5 points between its best and worst tract, the per-tract table below is the operative number. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
