Sun Valley Eviction Risk: High , Los Angeles

Severe burden reaches 37%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate. The score leans hardest on rent-regulation exposure at 10/10.

SNAP participation runs 44.0% against 15.2% nationally. On the high side, local political climate reads 9.5/10.

Sitting well above the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 9.5/10. Annualized rent equals 41% of average household income of $47,799, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with.

This is renter territory: 85% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. The poverty rate is 29%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest. Against the Los Angeles County average of 8.4, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.5 points.

At $1,617 a month, rents run 16% under what the rest of Los Angeles commands. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 16.7% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. Nationally it ranks #1 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

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.
