Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Los Angeles

Set annual rent against average income of $28,516 and the ratio lands at 56%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. The dominant input is rent-regulation exposure at 10/10. Food insecurity runs 51.4% against 17.8% nationally.

Running hot, local political climate reads 9.5/10. 91% 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.

67% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, well above the Los Angeles County average of 53.8%. Sitting well above the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 9.5/10.

Adults with no health insurance runs 30.7% against 11.3% nationally. The poverty rate is 36%. Judgments in high-poverty tracts are collectible far less often than filing counts suggest.

At $1,335 a month, rents run 31% under what the rest of Los Angeles commands. Against the Los Angeles County average of 8.4, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.5 points.

All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
