Harvard Heights Eviction Risk: High , Los Angeles

SNAP participation runs 47.0% against 15.2% nationally. The severe-burden share is 31%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.

98% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building nearby. Running hot, local political climate reads 9.5/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 9.5/10.

Set annual rent against average income of $49,400 and the ratio lands at 34%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. At $1,407 a month, rents run 27% under what the rest of Los Angeles commands. The poverty rate is 29%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

Against the Los Angeles County average of 8.4, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.5 points. Disability prevalence runs 43.6% against 31.5% nationally.

This ground was mapped C ("Definitely Declining") 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. Nationally it ranks #1 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 9.8/10.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
