Woodland Hills Eviction Risk: High

2 census tracts · pop 5,999 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 9.2/10 · range 8.4–9.9

Woodland Hills spans 2 census tracts of Los Angeles, CA, population 5,999. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 9.2/10, High tier. Cost burden runs 55% against 35.0% citywide, putting Woodland Hills 20.0% over its own city.

The dominant input is rent-regulation exposure at 10/10. Severe burden reaches 36%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.

Running hot is eviction-process difficulty at 9.5/10. Sitting well above the midpoint is tenant-organizing strength at 9.5/10.

Scores across the 2 constituent tracts range from 8.4 to 9.9. A 1.5-point internal spread means block-level underwriting beats area-level here. Average gross rent is $2,296, 19% above the Los Angeles average of $1,933.

That places it #89 of 161 neighborhoods in Los Angeles. For a like-for-like read, Reseda Ranch and Tarzana score within a fraction of it.

Annual rent works out to 26% of average household income of $104,995. 58% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 9.2 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
