Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Park La Brea

The dominant input is rent-regulation exposure at 10/10. At $3,273 a month, rents run 69% over what the rest of Los Angeles commands.

100% 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. Set annual rent against average income of $85,147 and the ratio lands at 46%, above the conventional 30% ceiling.

Running hot, local political climate reads 9.5/10. Against Los Angeles County at 53.8%, around two-thirds of renters here are cost-burdened. On the high side, eviction-process difficulty reads 9.5/10.

The voucher gap is 24.7%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. It sits 1.2 points above the Los Angeles County average of 8.4. Food insecurity runs 9.6% against 17.8% nationally.

Adults with no health insurance runs 4.2% against 11.3% nationally. In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). 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.

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.
