Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Downey
The score leans hardest on tenant-organizing strength at 9.1/10. The severe-burden share is 28%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.
Set annual rent against average income of $59,242 and the ratio lands at 36%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. Running cool, supply constraint reads 1.8/10. 63% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, higher than the Los Angeles County average of 53.8%.
Running hot, rent-regulation exposure reads 7.9/10. SNAP participation runs 25.9% against 15.2% nationally.
Adults with no health insurance runs 18.9% against 11.3% nationally. That is riskier than roughly 95% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. Social vulnerability reads 9.1/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks.
Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 1.5 points hotter. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the most pressured. It tracks the Los Angeles County average of 8.4 closely.
Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
