The dominant input is rent-regulation exposure at 10/10. This is a renter market: 94% of occupied units are tenant-occupied.
Severe burden reaches 30%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. On the high side is eviction-process difficulty at 9.5/10. Sitting well above the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength at 9.5/10.
Set annual rent against average household income of $54,003 and the ratio lands at 34%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. The poverty rate is 25%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest.
At $1,529 a month, rents sit 21% under what the rest of Los Angeles commands. SNAP participation is 26.8% of households versus 15.2% nationally.
Food insecurity affects 26.9% of adults, 9.1 points above the national rate. Among the 161 mapped neighborhoods of Los Angeles, it ranks #1 by risk, the upper third.
With little internal variation, 9.9/10 is a fair proxy for any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
