Lake View Terrace Eviction Risk: High

2 census tracts · pop 2,027 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 8.4/10 · range 8.4–9.7

Lake View Terrace is a 2-tract neighborhood of Los Angeles, CA, population 2,027. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 8.4/10, High tier. The strongest single driver of the headline number 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. Internally this is not one market. Tract scores span 8.4 to 9.7, so two buildings inside the same boundary can carry materially different risk.

That places it #140 of 161 neighborhoods in Los Angeles. Only 7% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.

The closest comparables inside the same city are Hollywood Hills and North Hills. Poverty sits at 3%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 8.4 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.
