Severe burden reaches 37%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. What pushes the score up most is rent-regulation exposure at 10/10.
On the high side is eviction-process difficulty at 9.5/10. Running hot is tenant-organizing strength at 9.5/10. The poverty rate is 21%, which shows up in this model as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.
Average gross rent is $2,054, 6% above the Los Angeles average of $1,933. Among the 161 mapped neighborhoods of Los Angeles, it ranks #52 by risk, the upper third. Social vulnerability runs high at 8.3/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input.
The 11 tracts here are tightly clustered, 0.5 points apart at the extremes. Annual rent works out to 29% of average household income of $84,510.
46% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
The area figure travels well to individual addresses here, though the per-tract table below still carries the detail. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
