Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Cudahy

The severe-burden share is 34%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. 92% 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. Adults with no health insurance runs 28.9% against 11.3% nationally.

Sitting well above the midpoint, housing-court posture reads 8.7/10. Annualized rent equals 35% of average household income of $62,500, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with.

The poverty rate is 29%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment. Running hot, rent-regulation exposure reads 8.5/10.

It sits 1.5 points above the Los Angeles County average of 8.4. Against Los Angeles County at 53.8%, 61% of renters here are cost-burdened. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 16.6% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.

Nationally it ranks #1 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. Social vulnerability reads 9.3/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.
