Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Sunland

What pushes it up most is rent-regulation exposure at 10/10. The severe-burden share is 32%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.

Sitting well above the midpoint, local political climate reads 9.5/10. On the high side, eviction-process difficulty reads 9.5/10.

Against the Los Angeles County average of 8.4, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.5 points. Average gross rent is $1,709, 12% below the Los Angeles average.

In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground C ("Definitely Declining"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today. That is riskier than roughly 100% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

Social vulnerability reads 7.1/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 2.4 points hotter. Annual rent works out to 29% of average household income of $71,754.

32% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

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.
