Harvard Heights Eviction Risk: High

The strongest single driver of the headline number is rent-regulation exposure at 10/10. The severe-burden share is 33%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.

Sitting well above the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty at 9.5/10. 84% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building two streets over.

On the high side is tenant-organizing strength at 9.5/10. Annualized rent equals 32% of average household income here, past the 30% affordability line, which compresses the margin any screening standard has to work with. At $1,467 a month, rents sit 24% under what the rest of Los Angeles commands.

SNAP participation is 29.4% of households versus 15.2% nationally. The poverty rate is 23%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 24.2% of adults, against 14.2% nationally.

That places it #1 of 161 neighborhoods in Los Angeles. Social vulnerability runs high at 9.2/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.

Its 18 tracts score within 0 points of one another, so the area figure travels well to individual addresses.
