Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Leimert Park Village

Cost burden runs 83% here against 53.8% across Los Angeles County. The score leans hardest on rent-regulation exposure at 10/10.

Annualized rent equals 47% of average household income of $37,255, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with. On the high side, local political climate reads 9.5/10. Sitting well above the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 9.5/10.

67% 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. At $1,455 a month, rents run 25% under what the rest of Los Angeles commands. It sits 1.5 points above the Los Angeles County average of 8.4.

SNAP participation runs 23.1% against 15.2% nationally. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground B ("Still Desirable"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today. Nationally it ranks #1 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 3.8/10.
