North Hills East takes in 18 census tracts of Los Angeles, CA and houses 70,761 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 9.6/10, placing it in the High tier. The severe-burden share is 39%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.
63% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, far above the Los Angeles rate of 35.0%. What pushes the score up most is rent-regulation exposure at 10/10.
Running hot is eviction-process difficulty at 9.5/10. Sitting well above the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength at 9.5/10.
65% 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. Internally this is not one market. Tract scores span 8.4 to 9.9, so two buildings inside the same boundary can carry materially different risk.
Food insecurity affects 33.0% of adults, 15.2 points above the national rate. SNAP participation is 29.8% of households versus 15.2% nationally. The poverty rate is 21%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest.
Among the 161 mapped neighborhoods of Los Angeles, it ranks #62 by risk, the middle third. For a like-for-like read, Miracle Mile and Little Italy score within a fraction of it.
Social vulnerability runs high at 8.8/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.
For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 9.6 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
