Larchmont is a 7-tract neighborhood of Los Angeles, CA and houses 22,340 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 9.6/10, High tier. 58% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, dramatically above the Los Angeles rate of 35.0%.
What pushes the score up most is rent-regulation exposure at 10/10. 32% 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.
Running hot is eviction-process difficulty at 9.5/10. Sitting well above the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength at 9.5/10. 80% 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.
The 7 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 #62 of 161 neighborhoods in Los Angeles. The closest comparables inside the same city are Miracle Mile and Little Italy.
Average gross rent runs $2,048, close to the Los Angeles average. Annual rent works out to 31% of average household income of $78,694.
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. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
