Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Westchester

The dominant input is rent-regulation exposure at 10/10. At $2,878 a month, rents run 49% over what the rest of Los Angeles commands.

Sitting well above the midpoint, local political climate reads 9.5/10. On the high side, eviction-process difficulty reads 9.5/10. Annualized rent equals 37% of average household income of $94,491, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with.

74% 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. Against the Los Angeles County average of 8.4, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.5 points. 61% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, above the Los Angeles County average of 53.8%.

The poverty rate is 20%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. That is riskier than roughly 100% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Social vulnerability reads 3.9/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.

Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 2.4 points hotter.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
