Analysis

What drives eviction risk in El Monte

At $916 a month, rents run 47% under what the rest of El Monte commands. What pushes it up most is tenant-organizing strength at 9.6/10.

Running cool, supply constraint reads 1/10. Food insecurity runs 34.1% against 17.8% nationally.

This is renter territory: 71% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. Sitting well above the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 8.5/10. The poverty rate is 29%, which in this model reads as reduced rent-recovery odds after a judgment.

SNAP participation runs 30.0% against 15.2% nationally. Against the Los Angeles County average of 8.4, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.1 points.

Cost burden runs 59% here against 53.8% across Los Angeles County. 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 97% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.

CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 9.8/10. Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 2.0 points hotter.

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.
