The Legends at Cascades Eviction Risk: High

1 census tracts · pop 5,717 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 9.1/10 · range 9.1–9.1

The Legends at Cascades maps to a single census tract in Los Angeles, CA and houses 5,717 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 9.1/10, in the High tier. 51% 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.

Against a Los Angeles baseline of 35.0%, 81% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line. The strongest single driver of the headline number is rent-regulation exposure at 10/10.

Average gross rent is $2,704, 40% above the Los Angeles average of $1,933. Running hot is eviction-process difficulty at 9.5/10. On the high side is tenant-organizing strength at 9.5/10.

That places it #96 of 161 neighborhoods in Los Angeles. At 22% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out. For a like-for-like read, Sunland and Devonshire Highlands score within a fraction of it.

Social vulnerability runs high at 8.6/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input. Annual rent works out to 27% of average household income of $121,935.

One tract means one number: 9.1/10 applies directly to any address inside the boundary. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
