What drives eviction risk in Walnut Park
Food insecurity runs 39.4% against 17.8% nationally. The severe-burden share is 26%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment.
Well under the midpoint, supply constraint reads 1/10. 70% 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 26.6% against 11.3% nationally. Cost burden runs roughly one in two here against 53.8% across Los Angeles County.
Sitting well above the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 7.6/10. This ground was mapped C ("Definitely Declining") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Los Angeles. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above. That is riskier than roughly 93% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.
On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 9.1/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here. Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 0.9 points hotter. Of its three components the housing type and transport 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.
