New Chinatown Eviction Risk: High , Los Angeles

33% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Cost burden runs 69% here against 53.8% across Los Angeles County.

On the high side, local political climate reads 9.5/10. Running hot, eviction-process difficulty reads 9.5/10. Annualized rent equals 40% of average household income of $61,507, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with.

This is renter territory: 83% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. It sits 1.5 points above the Los Angeles County average of 8.4.

This ground was mapped D ("Hazardous") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Los Angeles. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above. That is riskier than roughly 100% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 8.5/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 2.4 points hotter. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the most pressured. Average gross rent is $2,062, close to the Los Angeles average.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
