Sunkist Park takes in 7 census tracts of Los Angeles, CA, population 25,313. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 7.6/10, in the Elevated tier. Cost burden runs 51% against 35.0% citywide, putting Sunkist Park 15.9% over its own city.
Scores across the 7 constituent tracts range from 5.7 to 9.9. A 4.2-point internal spread means block-level underwriting beats area-level here. 21% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate. The strongest single driver of the headline number is rent-regulation exposure at 8.1/10.
Sitting well above the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty at 8/10. On the high side is housing-court posture at 7.4/10.
Average gross rent is $2,083, 8% above the Los Angeles average of $1,933. That places it #160 of 161 neighborhoods in Los Angeles.
The closest comparables inside the same city are Downtown Culver City and Dolanco Junction. Annual rent works out to 22% of average household income of $116,226. 47% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 7.6 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
