Ramona Gardens Eviction Risk: High

13 census tracts · pop 43,197 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 9.9/10 · range 9.9–9.9

Ramona Gardens takes in 13 census tracts of Los Angeles, CA and houses 43,197 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 9.9/10, placing it in the High tier. Cost burden runs 55% against 35.0% citywide, putting Ramona Gardens 19.6% over its own city.

The dominant input is rent-regulation exposure at 10/10. Sitting well above the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty at 9.5/10. The severe-burden share is 29%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.

On the high side is tenant-organizing strength at 9.5/10. CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 30.8% of adults, against 14.2% nationally. This is a renter market: 75% of occupied units are tenant-occupied.

24.8% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt. Average gross rent is $1,492, 23% below the Los Angeles average of $1,933. The poverty rate is 24%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than the filing statistics suggest.

That places it #1 of 161 neighborhoods in Los Angeles. Social vulnerability runs high at 9.4/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.

Its 13 tracts score within 0 points of one another, so the area figure travels well to individual addresses.
