Vanowen Place Eviction Risk: High

14 census tracts · pop 56,519 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 9.3/10 · range 8.4–9.9

Vanowen Place takes in 14 census tracts of Los Angeles, CA and houses 56,519 people. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 9.3/10, High tier. 59% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, dramatically above the Los Angeles rate of 35.0%.

What pushes the score up most is rent-regulation exposure at 10/10. The severe-burden share is 34%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.

Running hot is eviction-process difficulty at 9.5/10. On the high side is tenant-organizing strength at 9.5/10.

The 14 tracts inside this boundary do not behave alike. Individual scores run 8.4 to 9.9, a 1.5-point gap wide enough that the area average misleads on any specific address. Average gross rent is $2,105, 9% above the Los Angeles average of $1,933.

That places it #81 of 161 neighborhoods in Los Angeles. For a like-for-like read, Brentwood Glen and Mount Washington score within a fraction of it. Annual rent works out to 27% of average household income of $92,749.

50% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

Underwrite the address, not the area: with 1.5 points between its best and worst tract, the per-tract table below is the operative number. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
