West Glendale maps to a single census tract in Los Angeles, CA and houses 3,729 people. The Eviction Risk Score is 9.9/10, in the High tier. Cost burden runs 54% against 35.0% citywide, putting West Glendale 18.7% over its own city.
The dominant input is rent-regulation exposure at 10/10. The severe-burden share is 35%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay. Sitting well above the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty at 9.5/10.
Running hot is tenant-organizing strength at 9.5/10. 76% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building two streets over.
Average gross rent is $2,167, 12% above the Los Angeles average of $1,933. Among the 161 mapped neighborhoods of Los Angeles, it ranks #1 by risk, the upper third.
For a like-for-like read, Bicycle District and Vermont Square score within a fraction of it. Annual rent works out to 32% of average household income of $81,283.
One tract means one number: 9.9/10 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.
