Analysis

What drives eviction risk in El Segundo

The dominant input is tenant-organizing strength at 9.5/10. It sits 2.0 points below the Los Angeles County average of 8.4.

This is renter territory: 75% of occupied units are tenant-occupied. Running cool, economic stress reads 1.4/10. Food insecurity runs 7.2% against 17.8% nationally.

Running hot, local political climate reads 7.5/10. 10% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 3.7% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.

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 81% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 2.5/10.

Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 1.1 points cooler.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
