Ironsides Eviction Risk: Elevated

13 census tracts · pop 53,264 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 7.2/10 · range 5.7–9.9

Ironsides is a 13-tract neighborhood of Los Angeles, CA and houses 53,264 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 7.2/10, placing it in the Elevated tier. Against a Los Angeles baseline of 35.0%, 56% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

The 13 tracts inside this boundary do not behave alike. Individual scores run 5.7 to 9.9, a 4.2-point gap wide enough that the area average misleads on any specific address. 27% 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.

The strongest single driver of the headline number is tenant-organizing strength at 8.5/10. Running cool is economic stress, at 1.9/10. Running hot is rent-regulation exposure at 7.8/10.

Among the 161 mapped neighborhoods of Los Angeles, it ranks #161 by risk, the lower third. The closest comparables inside the same city are Dolanco Junction and Sunkist Park. Average gross rent runs $1,924, close to the Los Angeles average.

Annual rent works out to 23% of average household income of $99,692. 42% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 7.2 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
