Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Torrance

The score leans hardest on tenant-organizing strength at 8.8/10. Set annual rent against average income of $69,448 and the ratio lands at 32%, above the conventional 30% ceiling.

Cost burden runs 45% here against 53.8% across Los Angeles County. On the softer side, supply constraint reads 2.1/10.

The severe-burden share is 15%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. At $1,857 a month, rents run 19% under what the rest of Torrance commands.

On the high side, local political climate reads 7.5/10. Nationally it ranks #6,330 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.

Social vulnerability reads 6.7/10 on the CDC index, a measure of exposure to housing and economic shocks. Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 0.8 points hotter.

Of its three components the household composition measure is the least 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.
