For a like-for-like read, Sun Valley and Dayton Avenue score within a fraction of it. Social vulnerability runs high at 8.5/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input. Its 8 tracts score within 0.6 points of one another, so the area figure travels well to individual addresses.
Average gross rent runs $1,977, close to the Los Angeles average. Annual rent works out to 31% of average household income of $77,191.
47% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
With little internal variation, 9.7/10 is a fair proxy for any address inside the boundary. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
