Analysis
What drives eviction risk in Strawberry Park

Cost burden runs 62% here against 53.8% across Los Angeles County. Running hot, rent-regulation exposure reads 7.6/10. 10% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears.
Adults with no health insurance runs 19.8% against 11.3% nationally. It sits 0.6 points below the Los Angeles County average of 8.4.
At $1,720 a month, rents run 8% under what the rest of Alondra Park commands. This ground was mapped D ("Hazardous") 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. On the national scale it lands near the 89th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.
CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 9.7/10. Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the most pressured. Annual rent works out to 28% of average household income of $72,656.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
