Sherman Oaks Eviction Risk: High , Los Angeles

Sitting well above the midpoint, local political climate reads 9.5/10. At $2,659 a month, rents run 38% over what the rest of Los Angeles commands. 27% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.

Running hot, eviction-process difficulty reads 9.5/10. 73% 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.

Adults with no health insurance runs 3.2% against 11.3% nationally. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 3.2% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. This ground was mapped A ("Best") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Los Angeles. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above.

Nationally it ranks #5,730 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 2.4/10.

Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 0.9 points hotter. Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured.

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.
