North Hollywood is a 4-tract suburb of Los Angeles, CA, population 11,662. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 9.8/10, in the High tier. Against a Los Angeles baseline of 35.0%, 61% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.
Severe burden reaches 37%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. What pushes the score up most is rent-regulation exposure at 10/10.
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. 74% 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 poverty rate is 18%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Average gross rent is $1,775, 8% below the Los Angeles average of $1,933. That places it #42 of 161 neighborhoods in Los Angeles.
Social vulnerability runs high at 8.8/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input. The 4 tracts here are tightly clustered, 0.3 points apart at the extremes.
Annual rent works out to 31% of average household income of $68,761.
With little internal variation, 9.8/10 is a fair proxy for any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
