Vanowen Place Eviction Risk: High , Los Angeles

Sitting well above the midpoint, local political climate reads 9.5/10. 88% 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.

Running hot, eviction-process difficulty reads 9.5/10. 21% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Against the Los Angeles County average of 8.4, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.5 points.

At $1,586 a month, rents run 18% under what the rest of Los Angeles commands. The poverty rate is 20%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. 48% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, below the Los Angeles County average of 53.8%.

SNAP participation runs 24.3% against 15.2% nationally. Food insecurity runs 26.4% against 17.8% nationally.

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. Nationally it ranks #1 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

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.
